When was the last time a book on typography made you swoon? Just wait until you feast your eyes on Fraktur MonAmour,
Berlin-based graphic designer Judith Schalansky's love letter to
Blackletter fonts. Blackletter, also known as Fraktur or Gothic type,
was commonly used throughout Europe in the Middle Ages. By the end of
the Renaissance it had mostly been replaced by the typeface Latin
Antiqua. The use of Blackletter type became taboo in Germany after World
War II because it was incorrectly associated with the Nazis, who
actually banned its use in 1941 because it was falsely believed to be a
Jewish invention. Revelations about the true history and meaning of
Blackletter type have resulted in a resurgence in usage by graphic
designers. Companies such as Nike, Reebok, and Coca-Cola now use Fraktur
intheir advertising. It decorates posters, album covers, and even skin
in the form of tattoos. But a comprehensive collection of the most
beautiful classic faces, as well as the best new variations, has been
missing until now.
Fraktur Mon Amour reproduces 300
variations of Blackletter fonts, ranging from historical fonts to
contemporary reinventions, in a sensuous, beautifully crafted, hot-pink
prayer book-style catalog that is destined to become a fetish object for
designers and type enthusiasts. Each Blackletter font is presented on a
full page along with its complete alphabet, date of origin, the name of
its designer, and its original foundry. On the facing page is a
composition created from that font that explores the subversive beauty
of this unique typeface. In addition, 137 of these fonts—including four
created exclusively for this book—are collected on an enclosed CD (Mac
and PC) for free private and restricted commercial use. Fraktur Mon Amour is the winner of several awards, including the Type Directors Club of New York's 2007 Award for Typographic Excellence.
