Inhaltsangabe

On the political complicities of graphic design, and how the discipline can be transformed

Combining case studies with critical essays, Graphic Design Is (…) Not Innocent asks: who is graphic design for? Who does it exclude, in its seemingly neutral labor? What social and political effects does it bring about? And what is the future of a politically responsible graphic design? The contributors interrogate the discipline’s ingrained approaches and implicit values to demonstrate its profound implication in social processes.
Contributors include: Karo Akpokiere, Christian Bauer, David Bennewith, Friedrich von Borries, Clémentine Deliss, Li Degeng, Sandra Doeller, FDSC (Feminist Designer Social Club), Daniel Martin Feige, Annette Geiger, Matthias Görlich, Jianping He, Anna Lena von Helldorff, Martin Ludwig Hofmann, Jun Kay, Anoushka Khandwala, Klasse Grafik, Christoph Knoth, Francisco Laranjo, Eva Linhart, Madoka Nishi, Ingo Offermanns, Sophia Prinz, Markus Rautzenberg, Konrad Renner, Conor Rigby (Feminist Internet), Vera Sacchetti, Isabel Seiffert (Offshore), Pierre Smolarski and Markus Weisbeck.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Graphic Design Is (…) Not Innocent questions ingrained approaches, values and assumptions of graphic design in globalized societies. The publication aims to initiate a dialogue between designers, scholars, critics and commissioners, who investigate responsibilities, potentials, politics, limits and risks of designing visual communication. How innocent is graphic design? Whom is it addressing, whom is it in/excluding? What does it bring about? When defining the role and impact of visual communication, what future questions lie ahead?
Graphic Design Is (…) Not Innocent combines case studies and academic reflections, trying to sketch a common ground for basic research into the parameters and value systems of graphic design. It is a road trip between various possible conceptual challenges and praxis. It is a temporal inventory, without the claim of completeness. It is a question mark, as well as an exclamation mark. And it wants to stimulate critical thinking in graphic design.
