ABC Stefan is an artist-specimen-accordian-book hybrid designed by Dinamo and veryes, which examines what it means to take something as personal as an artist’s handwriting and make it accessible for others to use. Published to celebrate the release of ABC Stefan — a digitization of the artist Stefan Marx’s personal handwriting — the artist book features 2.5m of glyphs, Stefan Marx's A-Z of drawings, an essay by design writer and curator Billie Muraben, and a poem-artwork by the grandfather of zine-making, AA Bronson.
