Abstract

Graphic Design Is (?) Not Innocent questions ingrained approaches, values and assumptions of graphic design in globalized societies. The publication aims to initiate a dialogue between designers, scholars, critics and commissioners, who investigate responsibilities, potentials, politics, limits and risks of designing visual communication. How innocent is graphic design? Whom is it addressing, whom is it in/excluding? What does it bring about? When defining the role and impact of visual communication, what future questions lie ahead?Graphic Design Is (?) Not Innocent combines case studies and academic reflections, trying to sketch a common ground for basic research into the parameters and value systems of graphic design. It is a road trip between various possible conceptual challenges and praxis. It is a temporal inventory, without the claim of completeness. It is a question mark, as well as an exclamation mark. And it wants to stimulate critical thinking in graphic design.Bron : https://www.copyrightbookshop.be/shop/graphic-design-is-not-innocent/

Abstract

Five decades of iconic and incisive art from Barbara Kruger. Since the mid-1970s, Barbara Kruger (born 1945) has been interrogating the hierarchies of power and control in works that often combine visual and written language. In her singular graphic style, Kruger probes aspects of identity, desire and consumerism that are embedded in our everyday lives. This volume traces her continuously evolving practice to reveal how she adapts her work in accordance with the moment, site and context. The book features a range of striking images―from her analogue paste-ups of the 1980s to digital productions of the last two decades, including new works produced on the occasion of the exhibition. Also featured are singular works in vinyl, her large-scale room wraps, multichannel videos, site-specific installations and commissioned works. The book also showcases how Kruger’s site-specific works have been reconceived for each venue, and includes a section of reprinted texts selected by the artist. Renowned for her use of direct address and her engagement with contemporary culture, Kruger is one of the most incisive and courageous artists working today. This volume explores how her pictures and words remain urgently resonant in a rapidly changing world.

Abstract

En s'attachant à l'étude des slogans, des images et des graphies, ce livre propose d'interroger l'insubordination graphique des années 68. Dans une perspective de mobilisations collectives et de circulations internationales des idées, un véritable régime visuel s'est constitué durant cette période. Influencés par le tiers-mondisme, le pacifisme, le guevarisme et le maoïsme, de nouveaux codes d'expression se définissent, dans de nouveaux lieux (rues, palissades, usines, universités, barricades), par des motifs récurrents (le poing dressé, l'usine, les chaînes brisées, les moutons, De Gaulle), mais aussi à travers une terminologie ciblée (la chienlit, la lutte, les pavés, la beauté). Des affiches des ateliers populaires des Beaux-arts aux photographies de Gilles Caron, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Bruno Barbey en passant par les dessins de Siné, Willem, Topor, Crumb... sans oublier les collectifs d'artistes français et internationaux, cette étude passionnante permet de mieux comprendre les images de cet incontournable "moment 68".
