Poster Art History

My analysis of how successful and how did this artwork affect the society and culture as its target

This paper is a formal analysis of the Marble grave stele with a family group relief sculpture. It is a pentelic marble style relief standing at 171.1cm tall carved by a master. It is from the Late Classical period of Greek, Attic which was completed around ca.360 B.C. . I chose to analyze this piece as apposed to the others because I’m mainly attracted to art and sculptures from the Greek era. The overall color used in this relief is ivory with a few cracks and pieces broken off. There is some discoloration which causes the color to come off as slightly light brown for most of the relief. The sculpture appears larger compared to the other sculptures in the art room. It represents a family which includes a man, his wife, and their

Crevecoeur did not think highly of the American colonies. In the passage from his 1782 essay, Letters from an American Farmer, one could notice the negative connotation Crevecoeur writes about the American society. He uses many rhetorical strategies like diction, parallel structure, and rhetorical questions to convey his negative opinion about the American community and describe how they are not high-ranking.

n World War II, Great Britain used propaganda to inspire and persuade citizens to aid with the war. The war started in 1939. Germany started bombing Great Britain in the late 1940's. They implemented the National Service Act in December of 1941. Great Britain used posters to catch the attention of the citizens. The techniques used to catch the citizens attention are diction, imagery with color, and parallelism.

The new technology to create mass production enabled the profession as a commercial graphic designer which stands for a significant aspect of modernism in Australia. In fact, the first appearance of the term “Graphic Design” is not until 1922, in an American book designer William Dwiggins’ essay “New kinds of printing calls for new design”. (Drucker et.al, 2009) Prior to that, the concept of graphic design such as poster design was not seen as a general commercial advertising medium. “The ‘poster style’ was almost completely confined to the covers of art exhibition catalogues and literary periodicals, and to advertisements in these publications.”

Settlers coming to the Chesapeake region were arriving in big numbers, but mostly in men. Not only did families tend to move to New England, but whole congregations made the journey to find a place where they could set up “a City Upon a Hill”, and become an example to all who follow to live by as John Winthrop put it to his Puritan followers. In America,

I visited National Gallery of Art, Washington DC on Friday, March 29, 2013 to see the exhibition “Pre-Raphaelites: Victorian Art and Design, 1848-1900”.

During 1914-1916 when this poster was created the two of the most vital battles of World War One were taking place at Verdun and the Somme. 1916 is viewed as the year when the militaries of Britain, France and Germany were bled to death.

The decisions of holding a world’s fair had finally officially announced to public. The colorful flyers and the significant graffiti were posted around in Seattle. People were excitingly held the flyers and keenly waiting for the count down of Alaska- Yukon- Pacific exposition started. There were different designs of the flyers. The one

Local student Sylvia Abernathy’s layout was chosen as a blueprint for the mural. Her design allocated a section of the wall for each artist to paint a prominent Black figure that adhered to a certain category (literature, music, religion, government, athletics, etc.)

In the 20th century, wartime controls that governments enforced onto citizens had a greater impact on the Australian society during World War II of that time than it did in World War I. Government propaganda was more widespread during the Second World War compared to the first and in Australia during World War I, the prime minister of the time, Billy Hughes, ordered that full conscription for men to be enlisted in overseas service through two plebiscites. The changing roles of Women, left an everlasting impact over Australia after WWII since women during the first world war were given jobs such as, nursing, production of weaponry and services that were only offering low wages. However, in WWII, women were offered a greater and wider range of

During World War II government agencies, businesses and private organizations issued an array of posters relating to the military front to the home front by calling duty upon every woman to boost production at work and home. Posters conveyed more than simple slogans in fact posters expressed goals and needs of who designed them. They united power of art with the power of advertising to promote the idea that industry and home were also arenas of war. These campaigns not only aimed to increase industrial productivity they also aimed to enlarge people’s view on responsibilities during wartime. In fact, posters are a pragmatic art, they connect client with designer, artist, copywriter, printer and distributor but in many cases this connection become

The Posters that were used during World War II targeted women, Mechanics, and Hard working men. They targeted different types of people in order to get these people join and fight for America. By targeting these people it helped because these people to join in the fight. It targeting men who worked in factories, women who were nurses and doctors, and young mechanics who knew the inside and outside of cars. Because they targeted a specific audience it caused many more people to join the air force, army, and the air force. This was a way for the government to get more troops and more doctors.

Anderson was interested in the development of the artist- type, the inner desires of repressed people, the failure of people to communicate their true selves; the way conventions and tradition have twisted and distorted the individual (Doneskey 1-3).
