Omschrijving
Discover the unique genre of illustrated newspapers and their modernist artistic design. This rich collection explores 100 years of graphic news items from 1819 to 1921 and their trailblazing influence on the emerging avant-garde art movements. Featured artists include Jean Cocteau and Juan Gris, together with masters of graphic work Thomas Nast and Gustave Doré.
“The book bridges the gap between the largely forgotten field of press graphics and firmly established art figures and movements.”
“…graphics that changed the history of illustrated newspapers… an often overlooked medium.”
“What a colossal achievement. History of Press Graphics by Alexander Roob is instantly a definitive work.”
Alexander Roob taught graphics and painting at the University of Fine Arts in Hamburg and the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart. In 2005 he co-founded the Melton Prior Institute in Düsseldorf, which specializes in the history of pictorial journalism and print culture.
