A style or movement in the arts that aims to depart significantly

Characterized by a deliberate rejection of the styles of the past;

materials and techniques in order to create artworks that better
reflected modern society (tate.org)

Logo design
Bass also designed some of the most iconic corporate
logos in North America; some companies have not yet
redesigned these logos, showing how ageless Bass
work is.
Kos Cosmetics (1959), Kibun (1964), Warner
Communications (1972) still use his designs.
He also designed the logos of the Girl Scouts (1978)
and Geffen Records (1980) that have since been
slightly modified,
but with the essential look
remaining.
His other logo designs include those of Bell, AT & T and
Kleenex.
