Summary

"Jet Master is a collaborative effort involving artist Idan Hayosh, who has long been fascinated by the order and visual harmony created by aircraft and weapons dealers in their publicity and advertising photographs, and the design team of Corina Künzli and Salome Schmuki, who have found even deeper and more thought-provoking patterns and visual motifs in Hayosh's found images. Together, the three have compiled a series of images - printed in color, black and white and monochrome compositions - in which athletes, bombs, marching band members, and jet planes are arranged according to a strict visual logic that disregards the individual and its potential for upsetting order and causing destruction"--Publisher.
