Title: The social effect of Graphic design
- Even though graphics is seen in everyday life its a very passive form of design so does it have social effect?
- Many people engage with design everyday and is applied to most paper based sources in masses, yet graffiti is becoming the art form of this bombarding society with a message.
- The angel of the north os a piece of fine art as is graffiti yet why is one seen to be more acceptable than another?
- We see the uses of graphic design everyday and often recieve things such as mailouts underground maps etc for free yet a free art gallery is going to be something of the past does this mean fine art is considered more value and why is this?
- Is graphic design considered as a 'waste' art form due to its paper based form in most cases the design is ignored and the fact wasted paper is more of an issue.
