Graphic Design 4 / 1.1. LT - Why graphic design history is important

Before starting with the next lessons in the days to come and deep diving into some of the highlights of the modern history of graphic design, it will be beneficial to get a broad overview of the field. Discover the power of imagery with Sean Adams in the LinkedIn Learning Course below. After completion (with some quizzes in between), you’ll receive a LinkedIn Learning Certificate.

Sean Adams managed the AIGA historical archives - the world’s largest collection of graphic design history. In this course, he focuses on the hows and whys of each design movement, detailing the development and evolution of specific styles, techniques, and genres.


Additional task

Before starting the course, get a pencil and a piece of paper ready to draw a horizontal timeline. Make rough notes on the timeline as the course goes on. It does not have to be neat or technically correct in every way! It’s just a way for you to understand how the periods overlapped and influenced each other.
