What They're Saying
Critics Review
Disorder: Swiss Grit Vol. II is more akin to an artist’s book on steroids than a typical no-nonsense professional monograph. And as such it grabs the spotlight in the current chorus line of 300-plus-page designer showcase books published today. Another distinction is the majority of chaotic in-process images rather than pristine finishes. At first blush a reader might think this Ashworth is another artifice guy, but a second read-through will reveal a different truth.–Steven Heller “Print” (3/26/2025 12:00:00 AM)
