Esquire Design Director: 'I Wanted to Create... a Coffee Table Book'
Esquire‘s 75th anniversary issue features a number of works from artists based around the globe that were commissioned by the magazine to illustrate its pages. David Curcurito, the design director who oversaw the project (and designed the E Ink cover), spoke with FishbowlNY.com about how the idea came to fruition, how much it cost and where the art will be shown:
“We’d been prepping for the 75th anniversary for months and [the question was] how do I do something different, how do I not hire your standard illustrator to illustrate some stories that were probably going to be some of the best stories that we’ve published in a really long time — not that we haven’t published fantastic stories in the past — but obviously these are going to be a little ground-breaking.
