Yet the past swells with untapped potential. Graphic design history can serve the field of today and tomorrow, but its narratives require updates. History, like design, is always changing - and like design, history is driven by the needs of the present. This book offers ways to engage history, even while transforming it, to inform ethical and intelligent practices. Through this critical guide, Aggie Toppins draws on feminist, decolonial, materialist, and postmodern theories to articulate the links between historiography and historical reference—all in accessible language for a college reader. With thoughtful analyses, stimulating creative prompts, interviews with designers from all over the world, and diverse, inspiring case studies that include authorial projects as well as material interventions and community-based projects, this book challenges our traditional understanding of graphic design history.
Aggie Toppins is an Associate Professor and Chair of Design at the Sam Fox School of Design and Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis, USA. She writes and practices design at the intersection of critical histories,social justice,and studio-based making.
