Synopses: Reading 1 At the beginning of this article, Jorge Frascara disagrees with how EI Lissitzky relate graphic design to fine arts without considering its social impact. Some artist viewed it as an art form while he stands at the opposite side. He points out the flaws of Lissitzky’s failure to recognize graphic design from several aspects. For example, he ignores the problems of appropriateness, performance and the impact on the public and in the visual environment. Lissitzky and some contemporary avant-garde artists did not clearly distinguish the difference between visual creation and visual manipulation. This results in negative influence in mass communication. Jorge used the example of Pelikan ink to illustrate how inappropriate it is to overemphasize visual structure during the graphic design process. The image created …show more content…
He argues that graphic design can never be fully interpreted only with esthetic analysis. The technology, Efficiency of communication, and its social responsibility should also be taken into account. From Jorge’s perspective, a successful graphic designer is someone who build a communication link between the design and its audience while creating a pattern. It is important that the clients’ needs must be meet, but the author does not support the idea that schools should directly serve industry. He suggests a balance between esthetic construction of pattern as well as a clear implication that can be easily understood by viewers. Jorge talks about the quality of graphic design, which is how the design can be measured. He stated that clarity and beauty do not determine its overall achievement. The evaluation of the communication design process need to focus on the behavioral changes it produces in the target population, that is, to consider it social significance. Jorge’s answer to question in the topic should therefore be both fine art and social

Graphic designer and typographer Stefan Sagmeister has always had a unique way of viewing the world, therefore has created designs that are both inventive and controversial. He is an Austrian designer, who works in New York but draws his design inspiration while traveling all over the world.

He has created projects in the most diverse and extreme of ways as a form of expression.

My goal for this paper is to give a practical critique and defense of what I have learned in my time as a Studio Art Major. During my time here I have learned that Pensacola Christian college’s definition of art “art is the organized visual expression of ideas or feelings” and the four parts of Biblosophy: cannon, communication, client, and creativity. Along with Biblosophy I have studied Dr. Frances Schaeffer 's criteria for art, seeing how the technical, and the major and minor messages in artwork. All of these principles are great but they do need to be refined.
Globalization accompanies with the localization. People often read design via their recognitions of visual signals. By creating a more humanistic approach to visual design, a global design consisting of localization, graphic signal, research, marketing, and both linguistic and semiotic communication to breakdown the global code of design (Jones, 2011).

Many do not consider where images they see daily come from. A person can see thousands of different designs in their daily lives; these designs vary on where they are placed. A design on a shirt, an image on a billboard, or even the cover of a magazine all share something in common with one another. These items all had once been on the computer screen or on a piece of paper, designed by an artist known as a graphic designer. Graphic design is a steadily growing occupation in this day as the media has a need for original and creative designs on things like packaging or the covers of magazines. This occupation has grown over the years but still shares the basic components it once started with. Despite these tremendous amounts of growth,

Russian Avant-Garde was born at the start of the 20th century out of intellectual and cultural turmoil. Through the analysis of artworks by Aleksandr Rodchenko and El Lissitzky this essay attempts to explore the freedom experienced by artists after the Russian Revolution in 1917. This avant-garde movement was among the boldest and most advanced in Europe. It signified for many artists an end to the past academic conventions as they began to experiment with the notions of space, following the basic elements of colour, shape and line. They strove for a utopian existence for all benefited by and inspired through the art they created. They worked with, for and alongside the politics of the time. The equality for all that they sought would eventually take from them the freedom of their own artistic individuality.
In order to better understand the context of the paper, it would be beneficial to read “Design for the Real World” by Victor Papanek, furthermore, that lack of socially responsible design awareness at academic institutions is of great concern, in order to support the social design awareness, more research into where and how social design is taught, would add additional value to the claims in this review.
I was interested particularly in doing graphics design and the visual communication that I was inspired by combining images phrases and ideas to illustrate to the target and audience so that they would impact and react on those kind of illustrated for e.g. the billboards, poster, the product packaging and lots of more advertisement there. There are lots of elements on different types of media that I have already mentioned but there are also examples like Logos which really encourage people and make those people to think about logos. There are also lots of books designs and magazines advertisements thinking from these graphics design use of socially, morally ethical thinking mainly it happens when people do mostly think about positively and negatively so it would affect people’s mind and they would think more in detailed meaning which is called graphical visual communication, to demonstrate the recycle logo which would be advertise the recycling of ‘trees hunger and suffer do recycle paper’.

Visual Communication could be described as processes that rely primarily on rich visual content as the means of conveying information through words, photos, colors, shapes, and many other components. However, visual communication explores the use of graphical components in achieving communication goals. Visual communication has both critical and practical parts. According to the current book we use in the class “Visual Communication, Images with Messages”, the critical part of visual communication is known as visual rhetoric, which explores the way that designers use visual elements to influence audiences.
