About
Why this artist matters now
Alexandre Wollner was a Brazilian graphic designer and typographer who shaped modernist visual culture in postwar São Paulo. Working primarily in print design, corporate identity, and typography, he established a rigorous geometric aesthetic informed by Swiss design principles and modernist abstraction. Wollner's approach to layout, letterform, and spatial composition became foundational to Brazilian graphic design practice. His work bridged European design methodology with local cultural production, influencing generations of designers in Latin America.
