ANITA KLINZ (1923-2013) "The Day the Machine Stopped."

Item Details

Description

ANITA KLINZ (1923-2013)
"The Day the Machine Stopped." Cover illustration for the Italian science fiction magazine, Urania, October 1966. Tempera on illustration board. Round image, 184-mm; 7 1/4-inch diameter in 11 3/4x11 3/4-inch mat. Signed and dated on verso. A copy of the publication is included. Anna Maria ("Anita") Klinz was an Italian illustrator, graphic designer, and art director. Despite being one of the first female art directors in Italy, she is relatively unknown.Born in Opatija in what is now Croatia, Klinz studied graphic art in Prague, and arrived in Milan after World War II in search of employment. While working through an agency on layouts for the magazine Epoca, she met its publisher, Alberto Mondadori, who hired her permanently. She worked for Mondadori as Art Director for many years and supervised every aspect of book design. The red porthole of the science fiction series "Urania" is among her most recognizable projects. The design features the illustration enclosed in a red circle, representing the spaceship's porthole. The circle is often incorrectly attributed to the illustrator Karel Thole, probably because many illustrations in the series were developed by him under the direction of Anita. This composition was used for the series from 1964 to 1996. Source: Storia di Anita Klinz, prima art director italiana | Il Bo Live UniPD. (2023, March 6).
