Sharing a few pairs of clear, innocent eyes.

Cats and dogs can’t speak, but simply by being here, they remind us of the gentleness and beauty in the world.

‘George Giusti (1908-1990) was born in Milan, Italy. He studied at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan and did graphic design there before deciding to move to Zürich, Switzerland, where he opened a design studio, which he operated for seven years. While on a visit to the United States in 1938, Giusti was induced to stay by the several excellent commissions that were offered to him, including the opportunity to collaborate with Herbert Matter on the design of the Swiss pavilion at the 1939 New York World’s Fair. Giusti is well known in Europe and America for his architecture and sculpture, as well as his graphics. Over the years, Giusti garnered more than ten gold and silver medals and eighty other awards and citations.’

‘Allner was a designer, typographer and painter who pioneered computer-designed magazine layout. He collaborated with engineers to develop technology-aided design. In the late 1920s he studied at the Dessau Bauhaus. His teachers included Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, Joost Schmidt and Laszlo Moholy-Nagy.
During his 12 years at Fortune masgazine, in addition to maintaining the magazine’s Bauhaus-inspired contemporary typography and elegant overall design scheme, he personally created 79 covers, which ran the gamut from minimalist graphic abstraction to complex photographic collage. ...Allner also worked as an abstract painter (influenced by Josef Albers) and created enigmatic refuse-assemblages. ...’
