Meggs and Alston W. Any serious study also includes design theory, criticism, understanding images, persuasion, world history, and related topics. As with anything temporal, the history of graphic design and advertising is a product of its time—of the economy, politics, the arts, philosophy, culture, and society.

Graphic design is always affected by small and large human events and factors, such as war, culture, sub-culture, cultural unrest, economic turbulence, music, media, and more.

With no hard start date, we have to make choices. Should we begin with the cave paintings of Lascaux, Chinese moveable type, the Trajan column, or Gutenberg? Our history is the history of human communication, so where to begin?

For our purposes, we begin in the modern era, in the late nineteenth century. The advent of improved travel to Asia brought sailors onto the streets of Paris and London, weighted down with Japanese prints in their knapsacks. This style spread quickly. In Austria it was taken a step further with the Vienna Succession, a group dedicated to creating a new visual language.

In the early s, the shot heard round the world would be in Germany. When his father returned, he was so outraged that Lucian left home, permanently. Stranded in Berlin, he entered a contest sponsored by Priester Match to create a poster advertising their wares. He painted a composition that included matches on a tablecloth, along with an ashtray containing a lit cigar, and dancing girls in the background. Feeling it was still not working, he deleted the ashtray.

The tablecloth was next to go. Soon the Russian Revolution was under way, resulting in an extraordinary albeit short-lived amount of creative freedom for artists such as El Lissitzky, Rodchenko, and Malevich.

Artists such as A. Wellversed in design and illustration history, they drew upon existing forms, such as Art Nouveau and Art Deco, to create new ones. By combining illustration and design seamlessly, they ushered in a new era, in contrast to the stark Modernist movement that had gone before. In the mid s and early s, the retro approach reached its zenith.

Designers such as April Greiman and later David Carson took up the call. A myriad of new typefaces were displayed in Emigre magazine. In reaction, hand-lettered typography was suddenly manifest. Today, we are still reeling from the effects of the personal computer. Designers, perhaps more than ever before, can be the complete masters of their domain, responsible for every aspect of what winds up on the page or digital display.

The time line continues. Where are we headed? Only the future will tell. The goal of this brief time line is to put the information in this book into a broader context. As Brower asks: Should we begin with the human and animal representations and signs in the Cave of Lascaux some 16, years ago? Does the history of visual communication begin in the eleventh century with the invention of moveable type by a man named Bi Sheng in China?

Did graphic design begin with graphics that identified? Did graphic design begin with the combination of words and images in the first poster? For our purposes, we begin in the modern era, in late nineteenth century Europe.
