    ANM102 | HISTORY OF GRAPHIC AND WEB DESIGN CHAPTER 14 Pictorial Modernism PICTORIAL MONDERNISM The Beggarstaffs • Brothers-on-law, James Pryde and William Nicholson opened an advertising design studio in 1894 and to protect their reputations as fine artists, they named it The Beggarstaff Brothers. They developed a new technique that was later called collage. By cutting pieces of paper, moving them around and pasting in position on a board, they created flat plans of color where the edges of the shapes were “drawn” with scissors. • Unlike Art Nouveau, the Beggarstaffs forged a new beginning of design focused on powerful colored shapes and silhouettes rather than organic and decorative form. PICTORIAL MODERNISM 2 PICTORIAL MONDERNISM Poster Design in Europe • The European poster in the first half of the 20th century was greatly influenced by the modern-art movements surrealism, cubism, and dadaism. Designers were aware of the need to use pictorial references in their posters as a way to visually enhance and ultimately communicate more persuasively their views. Influenced mostly by cubism and constructivism, poster artists combined expressive and symbolic images as well as total visual organization on the picture plane. William Pickering, title page for the Book of Common Prayer, 1844. PICTORIAL MODERNISM 3 POSTER DESIGN The Beggarstaffs • poster for Harper’s Magazine, 1895 PICTORIAL MODERNISM 4 POSTER DESIGN The Beggarstaffs • poster for Don Quixote, 1896 • never printed because the director/producer of the play felt the image was a bad likeness of Quixote. PICTORIAL MODERNISM 5 POSTER DESIGN Dudley Hardy • British painter who joined The Beggarstaffs in creating posters and advertising design • Theatrical poster for The Gaiety Girl, 1898 • Developed a formula for theatre poster design where letters and images appeared on a flat plane of color PICTORIAL MODERNISM 6 PICTORIAL MONDERNISM Plakastijl • A design school originating in Germany— the name means “poster style.” • The traits of Plakastijl are usually bold, straight lettering with a very simple design.

They received their training at the Glasgow School of Art and became known for their contribution to "the Glasgow Style," Scotland's answer to Continental Art nouveau and Symbolism. Although they inherited their visual vocabulary from the male-dominated language of the fin-de-siècle. they produced representations of women that differed from those made by their male colleagues. I suggest that these representations were informed by the female exper,i*nce and that they must be understood as such if we, as historians, are to discuss their art.
