Now in its second edition, this innovative look at the history of
graphic design explores its evolution from the 19th century to the
present day. Author Stephen J. Eskilson demonstrates how a new era
began for design arts under the influence of Victorian reformers,
tracing the emergence of modernist design styles in the early 20th
century, and examining the wartime politicization of regional
styles. Richly contextualized chapters chronicle the history of the
Bauhaus and the rise of the International Style in the 1950s and
'60s, and the postmodern movement of the 1970s and '80s. The book's
final chapter looks at current trends in graphic design, with
in-depth discussions of grunge, comic book, and graffiti
aesthetics; historicism and appropriation; and the influence of
technology, web design, and motion graphics. The second edition
features over 80 new images, revised text throughout, a new chapter
on 19th-century design, and expanded sections on critical topics
including the Swiss Style, Postmodernism, and contemporary design.
