Graphic Design and Illustration

SYLLABUS

Theoretical module

In theoretical lectures, students are taught the history of illustration from the early 19th century until today. In particular, the following are examined: a) the simplification of the form and its role in the direct understanding of meaning in contemporary illustration, b) conditions that caused the change in the perception of aesthetics until then and c) the redefinition of the basic principles of pictorial design communication.
Methods and techniques. Lithography. Introduction to the art ukiyo-e. Influence of ukiyo-e on Western iconography in the fields of structural-pagination issues and innovative techniques. The influence of the visual movement of Symbolism on the process of simplification of contemporary illustration-lecture is done by projecting slides -videos with dialogue and discussion.

Workshop module

In the workshop, students undertake the design of the illustration of a short story, or story, or poem, or fairy tale with the aim through their writing style to convey its character, but also to propose innovative techniques that will correspond to the contributors who shape the profile of the respective subject. The interrelated relationship between image and text in this compositional research of the design process lays the foundations for the design of the next poster exercise, which is the last exercise of the workshop.
