In 1966, the Swiss designer organized the first jazz concert in his hometown of Willisau, Lucerne. In 1975 he founded an annual jazz festival that has since brought both established and younger artists to the stage. Troxler designed countless posters for these festivals, as well as for the individual concerts. His early designs embraced an illustrative style from which he soon emancipated himself, eventually translating the character of experimental music and taking up its improvisational gestures.\u003cbr\u003eOn the occasion of Troxler's 75th birthday, this publication presents a selection of his jazz posters, juxtaposing them with sociopolitical manifestos in poster form, mostly commissioned by himself, as well as public commissions, including those for the Olma agricultural fair, the Knie circus and the Geneva International Motor Show.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lars Muller Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/03\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783037786871\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96","brand":"Niklaus Troxler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41839117893813,"sku":"9783037786871","price":23.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_ff27486e-0162-4a1a-a5a4-afdd5b3195b9.jpg?v=1646729709","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/niklaus-troxler-poster-collection-34-9783037786871","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
