Description: |
One hundred seminal images - one from each year of the 20th century - are shown here alongside the works that influenced their creation and the designs that were inspired by and evolved from them. Commentaries are offered on the styles, devices and concepts that made their mark on the century. |
Synopsis: |
Icons of Graphic Design presents a unique history of design documenting a century of creative brilliance - a showcase that illustrates how the best ideas perpetuate themselves over time, one great concept inspiring the next. Organized chronologically, examples are grouped in themes and include works from both famous and anonymous graphic artists throughout the century - from Toulouse Lautrec through Milton Glaser to Neville Brody and Art Chantry - that visually juxtapose each example to related designs from the past and future. Authors Steven Heller and Mirko Ilic illuminate their selections with revealing commentary on the graphic styles, devices and influences working together to reach new heights of effectiveness and originality. |
