Callisto Publishers produces design books of the highest standards in terms of content, look and production with topics from design, art and architecture.
Welcome to Callisto Publishers! In our current program we focus on corporate identity and commercial design. As always, we put a special emphasis on historical analyses and the influence of social, economic, and political factors on the development of design and publicity strategies.
“All art has been contemporary”. This simple, yet highly illustrative conclusion by Italian artist Maurizio Nannucci from 1999 might as well serve as a paradigm for our 2016 / 2017 program. Without the in-depth knowledge of the designs and practices of the past, a profound understanding of contemporary design and art would not be possible. With our new publications we wish to help understand the pioneering spirit and futuristic boldness it took to establish identities as well as aesthetic principles we often tend to take for granted. New titles focusing on art and architecture are under development for our 2017 / 2018 program, including a survey of the wonderful art of the native cultures of the Northwest Coast of North America.
