      Making friends has never been so adventurous as in this hilarious tall tale from design legend Seymour Chwast! How far would you travel to find a friend? Whether you go to the South Pole to party with penguins, to the moon to have lunch with an astronaut, or high up a building to meet a window washer, bring a little gift, and all will go well. Award-winning graphic designer Seymour Chwast, co-founder of the legendary Push Pin Studios, takes us on a journey around the world (and off it!). And in the end, of course, it turns out you don’t have to go far at all to find a friend.

      Getting lost is a matter of perspective in this clever picture book about a dog making his way home—with help from new friends—after a gust of wind blows him halfway across the world! In this charmingly illustrated picture book for ages 3 to 6, a dog is blown away by a rogue gust of wind, sent far away while he’s in the middle of his bath with his owner. As the dog finds his way back home, he makes new friends all over the world who offer timely and generous help. Like all of Chwast’s stories, there is a truth hidden in its goofball premise: that if you keep your head on you and are willing to ask for help, all sorts of good folks may come to your aid.

      Poster Man: 50 Years of Iconic Design

      This collection of over 140 curated posters by the revolutionary graphic artist Seymour Chwast provides context and insight into not only his five-decade career, but the poster genre itself. Since founding Push Pin Studios alongside Milton Glaser and Edward Sorel in the 1950s, Chwast's posters have been widely celebrated for their combination of subversive style and strong political satire. His caustic humor, graphic hand, and visual commentary cleverly synthesize in a way that is both wry and immediately understandable. Posters are arranged by type--Causes, Commerce, Information, Exhibits, and Lectures--rather than chronology, which, along with the large format, invites readers to engage thematically with the designs. Commentary on each poster makes this a valuable resource for students, educators, historians, and all who appreciate the unique ability of posters to subvert notions of popular culture, politics, and design at once. Essays by Shepard Fairey and Steven Heller contextualize Chwast's impact on 20th-century design.
