(Preface) 'The great motivating force behind art and design in the 1980s was the international rejection of Modernism. Whether from Switzerland, Brazil, Japan, or the United States, designers determined that precision alone was no longer enough, and developed a wide range of techniques and styles that took graphic design in bold new directions.
This is the first book to identify and discuss the eclectic design styles that emerged in the 1980s, and the first to document contemporary design thematically, thus placing the achievements of these important designers in a meaningful analytic context.
Bridging the gap between design annuals and design histories, Contemporary Graphic Design is an exciting exploration of the graphic design trends of the past decades. It showcases the work of dozens of major designers who have made outstanding contributions to the field and develops a critical vocabulary vital to an understanding of the design logic of the 1980s.'
