Neville Brody

Neville Brody is an English graphic designer, typographer and art director. He was also partly responsible for instigating the FUSE project an influential fusion between a magazine, graphics design and typeface design. Each Magazine is complete with articles relating to typography. He is most well known for co foundering FontShop and is responsible for some of the most popular fonts on the website.

But the reason i like Neville Brody so much is because of his work with typography, he is very unique in his style of art. I Particularly like how clean it is, its not to messy, it has a point and he is very good at conveying it. I think this achieved through minimalism, each peice doesn't have a hundred things to look at. for example:

In this piece Brody has a clear focal point and doesn't mess around with distractions. Some people might not like this minimalism style but personally i think it just looks even better if you can make something look so good without tricks etc. 

This is also my favourite piece by Brody because it incorporates typography, a deep meaning and its generally very colourful, It feels like propaganda and i personally like that because it means its art you can rally behind.
