Notes: Michael Schirner’s 1989 “Alles Falsch” series subverts traditional visual communication by stripping away imagery to focus on the provocative power of typography and color. Consisting of four distinct variations, a complete set of the series is extremely rare. The series’ achievement lies in its transformation from a temporary exhibition announcement to a permanent icon of Swiss graphic history. The pristine screen-print finish ensures that Schirner’s radical “Alles Falsch” manifesto remains as visually striking today as it was at its debut.
