"During the past few decades the images of graphic design have come to play an increasingly significant role on the American scene. But despite their ubiquity and because they often serve commerce, these visual messages are seldom deemed significant or worthy of critical attention. This book (and the exhibition at Walker Art Center-) comprises the first large-scale to examine America's, most pervasive art form. An emblematic variety of design genres and issues is examined in the exhibition and the book, which includes essays by a number of today's most astute design critics."
