This book brings together the work of Iris Alba (1935–1993), a designer and art director from Buenos Aires who shaped the editorial landscape in Argentina, Latin America, and Spain through her electric book cover design. More than a visual archive, it offers a focused look at her contribution to the publishing world and her role in defining a distinct visual language within Latin American design.
In the words of Ellen Lupton: “Pulled together into a collection, Iris Alba’s paperbacks tell a bigger story about a singular artist, the business of publishing, and the impact of Latin American design”.\
