Graphic Design Competition

No More Rules; Graphic Design and Postmodernisn - only $31.20
Design critic Rick Poynor tells this story in detail, breaking down a broad, multifaceted field of graphic design activity into key developments and themes: the origins of postmodern design; deconstructionist design and theory; issues of appropriation; the revolution in digital type; questions of authorship; and critiques of postmodern graphic design. The past twenty years have seen profound changes in the field of graphic communication. Each theme is illustrated by spectacular and significant examples of work produced between 1980 and 2000 that have changed the way in which designers and their audiences think about graphic communication.. No More Rules is the first critical survey to offer a complete overview of the graphic revolution during the post-modern period. As the computer has become a ubiquitous tool, there has been an explosion of creativity in graphic design; designers and typographers have jettisoned existing rules and forged experimental new approaches. »
