Foreword -- Introduction -- Literature, poetry & lyrics -- Typography -- Self-expression -- Self-love -- Love -- Politics -- Religion -- Belief systems -- Homage -- Acknowledgments -- Credits."Body Type is an eye-opening look into the amazingly creative ways that tattoo artists are utilizing typography. Whereas the majority of tattoo art uses images to convey messages, here the message actually is the image. Twenty-six alphabetical characters might not seem like much to work with, but a look through these photographs reveals the contrary. Here are truly unique social commentaries, expressions of love, hilarious examples of biting satire, plus some mottos, intricate logotypes, deeply personal song lyrics, and, of course, those tattoos that exist for one reason only: to shock the hell out of you. The crisp photographs are accompanied by an insightful commentary from renowned graphic designer and typographer Ina Saltz, plus consistently surprising and heartfelt explanations from the tattooed."--

Includes index."A ground-breaking global survey of today's most innovative artists working with text. The inclusion of text in works of art was a revolutionary creative advancement of the twentieth century, with artists subverting traditional conceptions of 'art' and 'writing.' Younger generations of artists have continued to use the inherent readability of words to communicate ideas to viewers across a diverse array of mediums, including painting, sculpture, installation, and video. Nominated by 66 leading global experts (including curators, critics, museum directors, and professors), Vitamin Txt showcases 103 living artists, from 34 countries, who place the use of text centrally within their artistic practices. With more the 500 artworks illustrated, and an introduction about the history of artists using text from ancient Chinese calligraphy to contemporary digital art, the book's focus allows for a showcase of a range of different mediums, providing a cross-disciplinary view into the art world today." --Advisors, nominators, and writers include: Jam Acuzar, Negar Azimi, Naomi Beckwith, Meriem Berrada, Omar Berrada, Lucienne Bestall, Allie Diswas, Isolde Brielmaier, Dan Cameron, Diana Campbell, Paul Carey-Kent, Lizzie Carey-Thomas, Antonia Carver, Yeon Shim Chung, Ellen Mara De Wachter, Tandazani Dhlakama, Yilmaz Dziewior, Louisa Elderton, Mai Eldib, Touria El Glaoui, Ruth Erickson, Elena Filipovic, Chris Fite-Wassilak, Alison M.
