ART 344 Typography and Image
This course considers type and image as abstract forms as well as vehicles enabling communication. Assigned readings will address historical aspects of typography, photography and their interrelated design issues. A critical understanding of aesthetic and stylistic judgments is presented through lectures, demonstrations and studio projects. Graphic problems address analytic interpretations of textual content in relation to pictorial form. Students integrate software applications as vehicles to produce creative design solutions. Additional lab fee applies.
