Beschreibung
“Viennese Posters. Art, Artists, Artwork” is a publication offering a series of explorations of specific aspects in Austrian cultural history which are linked to the development of the poster and graphic design in general. The period in question – from 1868 to 1938 – encompasses 70 years in which the world experienced major political, economic, technical and social upheaval. The same epoch also saw the development of the basics of our modern media world.
This book contains research findings on the creative interaction between advertising, art and media, and thus provides details of cultural history which were previously little known or even entirely unknown.
