Greetings from New York collector friends! After a sunshiney week in the Bay Area it sure is good to be back. As much as I love San Francisco, there's no place like home. Creature of habit I am, I headed over to the New York Health and Racquet Club at the crack of dawn, happy that good routines are sticking. I'm energized and ready to introduce today's editions from Chad Hagen: Nonsensical Infographic No. 3 and Nonsensical Infographic No. 4. These new prints make a sweet duo but also pair quite well to make a comely quad with Chad's previous editions: Nonsensical Infographic No. 1 and Nonsensical Infographic No. 2.
Way back when Sara introduced No. 1 and No. 2, we chatted about other infographics we have long loved: those drafted by the venerable Edward Tufte, the transparencies that grace the pages of GOOD and Andrew Kuo's ever-amusing and elegant illustrations for The New York Times. A painting by Andrew was one of the the first pieces of art I ever bought and it charms me to this day. I'd love to bring editions to you fine folks—he's long been on my wishlist.
Not too long ago, Chad contributed to ISO50's round-up of ways to overcome creative block. His words of advice were lined up with those of a few other graphical gurus, including Nicholas Felton whose annual Feltron Report is eagerly awaited (and who also just *might* be cooking up something good for 20x200-land), fellow edition-maker Mike Perry and NYT Design Director, Khoi Vinh. Chad had this thought to share: "In my opinion, there is no better way to trigger your own creativity than to see what great things others have made or are making. Going to museums, galleries, shows, etc..."
Also good for inspiring creativity? Living with art!
