This book collects the strikingly designed flyers and handbills that promote the effervescent nightlife of Barcelona. Announcing events at such clubs as Nitsa, the Moog, Touche, Sporting Club, Octopussy, the Picasso, and the Dot, these colorful flyers record the recent activity of an enthusiastic group of promoters, DJs, and club-goers. From the cultural re-vitalization following Barcelona's post-Olympic hangover to the infusion of trends and styles from neighboring European countries, these flyers reflect the dynamic changes in computer-driven music and design. This attractive, small-format book presents an exhaustive collection of over 500 flyers by 30 different designers, and includes several essays that describe the interesting evolution of this local subculture.Wishing to put the club flyer - a new graphic design spin-off - on record, the editor has selected 500 flyers by 30 designers, which have been making the rounds of Barcelona since the late 1990s.
