Paula Scher studied at the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia and began her graphic design career as a record cover art director at both Atlantic and CBS Records in the 1970s. Scher is now a partner at Pentagram, where she has worked since 1991.
A lavish, formidable large-format volume collecting 39 of her swirling, colorful cartographic points of view, a beeline addition to my favorite books on maps. Cherry on top: The cover jacket folds out into her legendary colorful map of the world. Artful and opinionated, MAPS is a beautiful antidote to the sterile objectivity of location-aware apps and devices? shining with Scher''s own distinct, quirky, visionary voice." - Brain Pickings"This excellently produced monograph features 39 of Scher''s most riveting geographical visions." - The Daily Beast"The colorful, annotated paintings collected in Paula Scher MAPS offer a world informed by the graphic designer''s poignant and incisive commentary." - Travel + Leisure"Forget about getting from point A to point B and journey through the crazy detailed, deceptively accurate, wild imagination of Paula Scher." - Communication Arts"
