Die Taetigkeit von Bruno Monguzzi ist ein Beispiel fuer die enge Verflechtung von rein intellektuellem mit sehr gefuehlsbetontem Schaffen. Als wichtige schoepferische Kraft innerhalb der Schweizergrafik verbindet Monguzzi die lateinische Denkart mit der germanischen Wahrnehmung. Er verknuepft die Gefuehlswelt mit der abstrakten Empfindungsweise. Bruno Monguzzi ist ein Beispiel fuer den Begriff einer modernen "Schweizergrafik". Armin Hofmann, Maerz 2014 b. Bruno Monguzzi's ability to use typography in a relevant, totally modern, and extremely elegant manner was excellent and set a benchmark for the direction in which I felt graphic design could be taken—notably meaningful and refreshing. Ivan Chermayeff, New York c. Bruno is a designer's designer; bold, serious, uncompromising and elegant. He has kept alive the flame of Modernism. Henry Steiner d. Bruno Monguzzi is one of the very tallest of giants we've been standing on the shoulders off. Stefan Sagmeister, New York
