OTL AICHER, DER DENKER AM OBJEKT
Germany 1991 – Director: Peter Schubert – Original language: German – Subtitles: None – Length: 45 min.
“A designer is a moralist,” the legendary and edgy designer Otl Aicher liked to hurl at his critics. It’s style that counts – in combination with aesthetics, innovation and sustainability. Peter Schubert, who studied visual communication at HfG Ulm himself, has created an enlightening portrait in honour of his eternally modern mentor. Simon Hauck
