Synopsis "Graphics Reloaded = Graphismes Revisités = Xatorra Gráfica: Reconstructing the Graphic (in Spanish)"

Recycling is a concept which can also be applied to contemporary graphic design and it represents a dynamic design resource and technique, which has generated its own particular retro, vintage, industrial and urban style. "Graphics Reloaded" is a fascinating compilation of more than 200 illustrations and contemporary graphic motifs, that have been created from photographs taken from inspirations and elements from the street - everyday images of people, worn public transport signs, old shop front facades, graffitis, old stickers, icons etc. The photographic images of these 'old' elements and textures are then converted into striking black and white graphics and illustrations - thus acquiring a new richness and meaning though their transformation.
