The Naked Ladies Alphabet

04/22/09 - NSFW

The Naked Ladies Alphabet by Anthon Beeke… one of the most elaborate ‘human alphabets’, in terms of its formal quality, is of course Anthon Beeke’s, published by de Jong & Co. printers in their experimental ‘Kwadraat’ series in 1970. His capitals, built entirely out of carefully choreographed ensembles of nude girls (no less than twelve for the ‘M’ and the ‘W’), are a tongue-in-cheek reaction to wimCrouwel’s experimental ‘new alphabet’, published in the same series some years earlier.” w/ photos (scroll down)
