Black and White Photography of Hans Mauli
Born in Switzerland in 1937, Hans Mauli studied graphic design at university for a career. In the late 1960s, he worked in New York for the celebrated American graphic designer Herb Lubain and was the designer of the art-deco typeface ITC Avant Garde, the font used for the World Trade Center signage. Mauli also worked for Young & Rubicam, a global full-service advertising agency in Paris, and in other world-wide cities including Copenhagen, London, New York, and Paris between the years 1971 and 1991.
Though graphic design was his profession, Mauli always had a passion to be a professional photographer. He moved to the United States in 1991 to focus on his career in photography. Mauli has produced a number of photographic series including: Chinese New Year, Portraits, Italy, Paris, Still Lifes, and two series on life in San Francisco. Recently he has done a series of shoots covering Napa Valley and Saint Helena, including the 2020 Glass and lightning fires in California.
