Summary "World Graphic Design is the first-ever survey of contemporary design and designers outside the United Kingdom, mainland Europe, North America and Australasia. Divided into four sections, each corresponding to a major geographical zone - Africa, the Far East, Latin America and the Middle East - it offers a groundbreaking survey of work being carried out today within the most popular genres of graphic design: posters, book and album covers, packaging and promotion." "This collection brings together designers who have sought to combine traditional forms of cultural expression with modern media, to use design for effective political and social comment, and, above all, to expand the potential of graphic design within their own countries."--Jacket
