    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.

Lucian Bernhard was a German graphic designer, type designer, illustrator, painter, teacher, interior designer, and artist during the first half of the twentieth century. He was born in Stuttgart, Germany on March 15, 1883 as Emil Kahn, but changed his name in 1905. The family of typefaces he developed is called Bernhard. Bernhard Modern Mostly self-taught, Bernhard studied briefly at the Munich Art Academy before going to Berlin in 1901. He was influential in helping create the design style known as Plakastil (Poster Style), which used reductive imagery and flat-color as well as Sachplakat (Functional Poster), which restricted the image to simply the object being advertised and the brand name. These styles of poster design incorporated brief powerful statements with a single image and generated their own form of display lettering. designers. designers. without counting on the ink spread.” - Lucian Bernhard type design.

  • The Power of the Poster Propaganda Poster Design
    Austin Klubenspies Fall Quarter 2017 The Power of the Poster Graphic Design Studio 1 SCAD Atlanta Propaganda Poster Design For centuries, posters have played a major role in delivering information to the public. Whether it is the date for an upcoming performance or an alert about a missing person, posters offer quick access to information throughout our daily lives. However, during the years of WWI and WWII, posters played a much darker role. During the beginning of WWI in 1914, the era of the propaganda poster had begun. Both the Allied Forces and the Central Powers started creating public posters that would engage the people in the war. Besides an attempt to validate their war engagement, these posters were used to promote enlistment, encourage conservation of food and resources among the people, raise funds for the military, and boost the overall public morale. Little did designers know that their posters would be the difference between victory and defeat. The Beginning of Central Propaganda Unsurprisingly, the Central Powers had quite a different approach to design than the Allied Forces. The poster design of the Central Powers was primarily inspired by Lucian Bernhard (figure 1) and the simplicity of the Plakatstil style (seen in figures 2). Bernhard, largely known for his influence and engagement in Plakatstil, was born in Stuttgart, Germany in 1883, originally named Emil Kahn. Primarily self-taught, Bernhard was a Graphic Designer, Typographer, Professor, Interior Designer, and Fine-Artist. At the beginning of his career, the artist, after being kicked out of his home for repainting Fig.1. Lucian Bernhard Portrait his family’s antique décor, had decided to enter a poster advertisement competition for the Priester Lucian Bernhard, 1955.

  • Audi Rs7 Cargurus Audi Is a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group and Has Its Roots at Ingolstadt , Bavaria , Germany
    Audi rs7 cargurus Audi is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group and has its roots at Ingolstadt , Bavaria , Germany. Audi-branded vehicles are produced in nine production facilities worldwide. The origins of the company are complex, going back to the early 20th century and the initial enterprises Horch and the Audiwerke founded by engineer August Horch ; and two other manufacturers DKW and Wanderer , leading to the foundation of Auto Union in The company name is based on the Latin translation of the surname of the founder, August Horch. The four rings of the Audi logo each represent one of four car companies that banded together to create Audi's predecessor company, Auto Union. Automobile company Wanderer was originally established in , later becoming a branch of Audi AG. Another company, NSU, which also later merged into Audi, was founded during this time, and later supplied the chassis for Gottlieb Daimler 's four-wheeler. On 14 November , August Horch — established the company A. In , he moved with his company to Reichenbach im Vogtland. His former partners sued him for trademark infringement. The German Reichsgericht Supreme Court in Leipzig , [14] eventually determined that the Horch brand belonged to his former company. Since August Horch was prohibited from using "Horch" as a trade name in his new car business, he called a meeting with close business friends, Paul and Franz Fikentscher from Zwickau. At the apartment of Franz Fikentscher, they discussed how to come up with a new name for the company. During this meeting, Franz's son was quietly studying Latin in a corner of the room.

Along each step of this quotidian but “revolutionary” existence, the imagery of John Heartfield offered direction. The radical- left citizen, for instance, might rise from bed and begin his or her morning by perusing the ultra- partisan Die rote Fahne (The Red Banner); at one time, Heartfield’s photomontages regularly appeared in this daily newspaper of the German Communist Party (KPD).1 Opening the folded paper to its full length on May 13, 1928, waking communists would have been confronted by the artist’s unequivocal appeal to vote the party’s electoral list. Later in the day, on the way to a KPD- affiliated food cooperative, these citizens would see the identical composition — 5 Finger hat die Hand (The Hand Has Five Fingers) (plate 13) — catapulting from posters plastered throughout urban areas.

  • New Typography in Scandinavia 2 in the Design Histories of Kjetil Fallan and Julia Meer.2 Titled
    New Ty pog raphy in Scandinavia: Domesticating theory and practice amongst the graphic trades, 1927–43 Trond Klevgaard A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Royal College of Art for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The Royal College of Art / Victoria and Albert Museum 22 December 2017 79,976 words ii Copyright statement This text represents the submission for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Royal College of Art. This copy has been supplied for the purpose of research for private study, on the understanding that it is copyright material, and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. iii Abstract This work provides the first extended account of New Typography’s path in Scandinavian countries, a topic which has yet to receive attention beyond a handful of articles and book chapters. Based on an exhaustive study of graphic trade journals published in Denmark, Norway and Sweden between the years of 1927 and 1943, it charts debate on New Typography and discusses the journals’ changing designs. Additional visual material has been sourced from a number of Scandinavian archives. In discussing the spread of New Typography’s theory and aesthetic from elsewhere in Europe, and then primarily from Germany, the thesis uses the concepts of domestication and networks, rather than those of diffusion or influence and centre–periphery. Dealing with a period in which the graphic designer had yet to appear as a professional figure, New Typography’s impact on a range of professional groups — all of which held responsibility for the design of graphic materials — is considered.
