It identifies and examines great works in advertising, information design, identity, magazine design, print, dimensional design, and posters that by midcentury had defined American graphic design.R. Roger Remington begins by discussing the emergence of Modernism and its major historical influences, including European avantgarde art movements, technology, geopolitical issues, popular culture, educational innovations such as the Bauhaus, architecture, industrial design, and photography. The heart of the book brings together the key works of midcentury Modernism, presenting them chronologically from the 1930s to the 1950s.
