Series “Visual Archives”

[edit]
[edit]

“Visual archives” is a book series co-published by Triest Verlag, Zurich and ECAL. Launched in 2017, the series features the results of research projects initiated and carried out at ECAL. It aims at exploring the archives of authors, designers and brands. Each volume is published in two different editions (English as main language, with a second edition in another national language), on such topics as Vico Magistretti, Eugen Gomringer, Bobst Graphic and Hermann Eidenbenz. Books published after 2024 will be released in open access to comply with funders' requests. In view of this move towards open access, the question arises as to whether to open also previous publications in the series, and how to then proceed.
