Graphic Design Theory
CFA AR 594
Students will be exposed to the writings of early 20th century Avant-garde designers, mid-century proponents of the International Style and design neutrality, poststructuralist theories of the 80's and 90's, the shift back to the notion as the designer as an individualized author in the early00's, and current debate over issues of technology and the designer as an agent of social change. This course will include weekly readings and written responses. Each week, a student will be assigned to present the reading(s) for the week, and introduce the work of the designer(s)/author(s) to be discussed. There will also be a studio component to create a designed visual response to one or more of the readings covered. This will be an elective course open to MFA students in graphic design. 2 cr
