The Dimensions of the Plane – Communication Design in Germany
|
|
Tuesday, March 16, 2010
2 p.m.
to 8 p.m.
Seagull Arts & Media Resource Centre
36C, S P Mukherjee Road
, Bhowanipore
Developing an interesting and worth while exhibition on the subject of contemporary communication design in Germany has to be based on a single premise, which is to show the full strength and scope of two-dimensional communication design services. This display is ‘contemporary’ in that it features works which represent the current state of communication design at the beginning of the 21st century. The impact of international exchange has always been great; thus for example American, Japanese and Swiss influences can be felt ‘in Germany’ and vice versa, international communication design has also been decisively influenced by practitioners from and in this country.
