  • April Studied at Kansas City Art Institute As a Graphic Design Major
    April Greiman April studied at Kansas City Art Institute as a graphic design major. At the Art Institute, April began to learn about and explore Modernism. Some of her professors at the Kansas City Art Institute had studied at the Basel School of Design in Switzerland. Enthused by her professors, April decided to attend the Basel School of Design to complete her graduate work. Postmodernism is a term that is open to inter- pretation. Some feel that postmodernism is a tweak on modernist ideals. Others feel that postmodernism is a rebellion or reaction to previous political ideas that were deemed to be corrupt. Post modernism related to graphic design is more open to view points. There is not one specific standard that applies to all postmodern art. The notion about this movement is that it is what you make it. As a graphic designer, April reacted to the changes around her, used the ideas from modernism while embracing new outlooks and new changes. Tak- ing advantage of both old and new tools, April created postmodern and transmedia works. Post Modernism occurred after the “New Wave”. It was This piece was not created by April Greiman, but was instead created to reflect Greiman’s popular in the late 1980’s, 1990’s and it even extends to work. It really has a double meaning, April being the month as well as her name. The work was created in 1998 for a lecture April was giving. This piece was sponsored by the Philadel- current art practices. phia chapter of the American Institute of Graphic Arts.

  • Revisiting the So-Called “Legibility Wars” of the '80S and '
    58 PRINT 70.3 FALL 2016 PRINTMAG.COM 59 HAT DID YOU DO during the Legibility Wars?” asked one of my more inquisitive design history students. “Well, it wasn’t actually a war,” I said, recalling the period during the mid-’80s through the mid- to late-’90s when there were stark divisions “Wbetween new and old design generations—the young anti- Modernists, and the established followers of Modernism. “It was rather a skirmish between a bunch of young designers, like your age now, who were called New Wave, Postmodern, Swiss Punk, whatever, and believed it necessary to reject the status quo for something freer and more contemporary. Doing that meant criticizing old-guard designers, who believed design should be simple—clean on tight grids and Helveticized.” “Do you mean bland?” he quizzed further. “Maybe some of it was bland!” I conceded. “But it was more like a new generation was feeling its oats and it was inevitable.” New technology was making unprecedented options possible. Aesthetic standards were changing because young designers wanted to try everything, while the older, especially the devout Modern ones, believed everything had already been tried. “I read that Massimo Vignelli called a lot of the new digital and retro stuff ‘garbage,’” he said. “What did you say or do about it back then?” “I was more or less on the Modernist side and wrote about it in a 1993 Eye magazine essay called ‘Cult of the Ugly.’” I wasn’t against illegibility per se, just the stuff that seemed to be done badly. I justified biased distinctions not between beauty and ugly, but between good ugly and bad ugly, or what was done with an experimental rationale and with merely style and fashion as the motive.

  • Download the Teacher Notes
    TEACHER EXHIBITION NOTES CALIFORNIA 24 APRIL – 15 OCTOBER 2017 INTRODUCTION The central premise is that California has pioneered tools of personal liberation, from LSD to surf- boards and iPhones. This ambitious survey brings together political posters and portable devices, but also looks beyond hardware to explore how user interface designers in the San Francisco Bay Area are shaping some of our most common daily experiences. By turns empowering, addictive and trou- bling, Californian products have affected our lives to such an extent that in some ways we are all now Californians. WHAT TO EXPECT The exhibition is separated into five sections that look at an aspect of the Californian ethic; whether it be the spirit of the working practice or the hippy mind-set of the Californian local. The five sections contain exhibits that look at the chronology of those themes. There is no set route around the sec- tions perhaps in keeping with the Californian ‘liberated’ freedom. HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE EXHIBITION The exhibition is split into the following sections; SAY WHAT YOU WANT Tools of self-expression and rebellion Californian designers have pioneered various forms of freedom of expression, producing distinct graphic cultures that have been widely influential. The political agitation of the 1960s produced a wave of activist design in support of free speech and civil rights for African Americans, women and the gay community. Artists and designers such as Sister Corita Kent and Emory Douglas of the Black Panthers created a politically charged language with a pop aesthetic. By the 1980s, political content gave way to more individualistic forms of expression.
