Book Art  Design  Communication and Fashion  An Interdisciplinary Approach

Download or read book Art Design Communication and Fashion An Interdisciplinary Approach written by Prof. Dr. Anna MELNIKOVA and published by GLOBAL ACADEMY YAYINCILIK VE DANIŞMANLIK HİZMETLERİ SANAYİ TİCARET LİMİTED ŞİRKETİ. This book was released on 2023-04-28 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface Art, Design, Communication and Fashion: An Interdisciplinary Approach; is a thought-provoking book for academics, researchers, doctoral students and policymakers interested in fine arts, design, fashion and the field, providing valuable information on contemporary issues in art, design, fashion. In this book; the first chapter aims to prepare pre-service teachers while serving the community by addressing the previously identified needs with an emphasis on the pedagogical methodology of service learning (S-L). S-L is different from volunteering and internships. In this context, the process of implementing S-L at the Royal Conservatory of Music of Granada is described. Popular culture is defined as a way of life that the majority of people in society live or will live. In the second chapter, visual art teachers' views on popular culture and approaches in classrooms are investigated. The third chapter highlights the potential for strategically designed systems, known as circadian lighting, to have a beneficial impact on people's health, alertness, productivity, and more. Since the fourth chapter is about holistic knowledge of the design process in fashion design, which is one of the fundamental skills for any graduate in the field, it is aimed to diagnose the curricular knowledge of the graduates of fashion design at the Federal Institute of Rio Grande do Norte (IFRN) - Caicó campus in the context of the idea that the student of Fashion Design should have a theoretical and practical mastery of the contents. Also this chapter aims to diagnose the level of mastery of curricular content by undergraduates in Fashion Design at IFRN – Caicó. The fifth chapter explains whether the materials of cardboard boxes and umbrellas can be recycled in fashion, as well as whether a garment can be created from the materials, in the context of economic, environmental and social sustainability concepts. The sixth chapter provides examples of how the artist uses symbols to convey a message of protection and attract attention. In general, considerations in the context of mythology studies include a close analysis of works of art that use mythological themes and symbols to represent ecosystems, and an assessment of the cultural and historical contexts in which these works of art were created. It is thought that this chapter will contribute to the ongoing study of how art fits into a broader tradition of mythical representations of natural environments and environmentalism in art. The seventh chapter discusses some sustainable design products, taking into account the importance given to the product life cycle in Portugal in the context of developing products with national and environmentally friendly materials that have the agreed-upon value for material culture. The authors of this book present a wealth of literature and research that will contribute to an understanding of the role of decision-makers and international organizations in the field of fine art in promoting growth and development. The book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in learning about the most recent trends and emerging issues in the fine art field.

Book Designing for the 21st Century

Download or read book Designing for the 21st Century written by Tom Inns and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we become familiar with the 21st century we can see that what we are designing is changing, new technologies support the creation of new forms of product and service, and new pressures on business and society demand the design of solutions to increasingly complex problems, sometimes local, often global in nature. Customers, users and stakeholders are no longer passive recipients of design, expectations are higher, and increased participation is often essential. This book explores these issues through the work of 21 research teams. Over a twelve-month period each of these groups held a series of workshops and events to examine different facets of future design activity as part of the UK's research council supported Designing for the 21st Century Research Initiative. Each of these 21 contributions describes the context of enquiry, the journey taken by the research team and key insights generated through discourse. Editor and Initiative Director, Tom Inns, provides an introductory chapter that suggests ways that the reader might navigate these different viewpoints.

  • ISBN : 1978834381
  • Pages : 175 pages

Download or read book Borderless Fashion Practice written by Vanessa Gerrie and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-16 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-first century fashion practice has become increasingly borderless and diverse in the digital era, calling into question the very boundaries that define fashion in the Western cultural context. Borderless Fashion Practice: Contemporary Fashion in the Metamodern Age principally engages the work of four fashion designers -- Virgil Abloh, Aitor Throup, Iris Van Herpen, and Eckhaus Latta -- whose work intersects with other creative disciplines such as art, technology, science, architecture, and graphic design. They do their work in what Vanessa Gerrie calls the metamodern age -- the time and place where the polarization between the modern and the postmodern collapses. Used as a framework to understand the current Western cultural zeitgeist, Gerrie's exploration of the work of contemporary practitioners and theorists finds blurred borders and seeks to blur them further, to the point of erasure.

Download or read book Fashion and art written by Muriel Berthou Crestey and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: This unit examines the relationship between visual arts and fashion from an interdisciplinary perspective, combining the history of ideas and representations, material culture, and the history of modern and contemporary art. On a methodological level it is a question of "learning to learn" through practical exercises that show the stages of research, starting with the study of concepts and terminology and moving toward a perspective on images and reference texts, alternating between monographic, thematic, and chronological studies. The issues surrounding the relationship between art and fashion are studied from sociological, historical, anthropological, and technical perspectives. In Lesson 1, we study the terminology and vocabulary concerning the relationship between art and fashion. In order to develop the ties between the visual and applied arts, Lesson 2 positions major historical and cultural landmarks to explore their reciprocity of influence, focusing on the English Arts and Crafts Movement in the late nineteenth century. Lesson 3 deals with artists' clothing. Lessons 4 and 5 focus on the counter-impact that fashion has had on the visual arts, and its emancipation from those same arts.

Book Reverse Design

Download or read book Reverse Design written by Ana Cristina Broega and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 717 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collaboration between the Textile Department of the University of Minho and the Brazilian Association of Studies and Research (ABEPEM) has led to an international platform for the exchange of research in the field of Fashion and Design: CIMODE. This platform is designed as a biennial congress that takes place in different European and Latin American countries with the co-organization of another university in each location. The current edition was jointly organized by the University of Minho and the Centro Superior de Diseño de Moda (CSDMM) - Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. CIMODE's mission is to explore fashion and design from a social, cultural, psychological and communication perspective, and to bring together different approaches and perceptions of practice, education and the culture of design and fashion. Through an interdisciplinary dialogue and intercultural perspective, CIMODE wants to generate and present new scenarios about the present and future of fashion and design. ‘DISEÑO AL REVÉS’ (‘BACKWARD DESIGN’) was the central theme of the 4th CIMODE (Madrid, Spain, 21-23 May 2018), which produced a highly topical and relevant number of academic publications presented in this book.

Book Fashion  Design and Events

Download or read book Fashion Design and Events written by Kim Williams and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of fashion and design in an events context remains under-researched, despite their ubiquity and significance from a societal and economic perspective. Fashion-themed events, for example, appeal to broad audiences and may tour the globe. Staging these events might help to brand destinations, boost visitor numbers and trigger popular debates about the contributions that fashion and design can make to identity. They may also tell us something about our culture and wider society. This edited volume for the first time examines fashion and design events from a social perspective, including the meanings they bestow and their potential economic, cultural and personal impacts. It explores the reasons for their popularity and influence, and provides a critique of their growth in different markets. Events examined include fashion weeks, fashion or design themed exhibitions, historical re-enactments, extreme/alternative fashion and design events, and large-scale public events such as royal weddings and horse races. International examples and case studies are drawn from countries as diverse as the USA, UK, Germany, Bhutan, New Zealand and Australia. These are used to develop and critique various thematic concepts linked to fashion and design events, such as identity, gender, aspirations and self-image, commodification, authenticity, destination development and marketing, business strategy and protection/infringement of intellectual property. Fashion, Design and Events also provides a futurist view of these types of events and sets out a future research agenda. This book has a unique focus on events associated with fashion and design and features a swathe of disciplinary backgrounds. It will appeal to a broad academic audience, such as students of art and design, cultural studies, tourism, events studies, sociology and marketing.

Book Presence and Absence  The Performing Body

Download or read book Presence and Absence The Performing Body written by Adele Anderson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume collects research and critical explorations of the performing body by scholars and practitioners in visual and performing arts, textile, fashion and experimental design research, scenography and costume design, dance and performance history. Authors examine performativity of the body, its materiality, immateriality, and virtuality, and investigate experiences of embodiment. They reenvision the body as a site for representation, exploring the absent body in performance and as performance through time and space. Contributors bring a broad variety of contemporary approaches, from live performance to mediated performance, from installation art to performance art, and from experimental fashion to theatre and dance. They discuss issues of process and meaning-making and practices from concept and interpretation to creative production and reception. The volume expands possibilities for the role of the body in performance, while also challenging roles and hierarchies of existing performance practice.

Book Graphic Design as Communication

Download or read book Graphic Design as Communication written by Malcolm Barnard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-04 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the point of graphic design? Is it advertising or is it art? What purpose does it serve in our society and culture? Malcolm Barnard explores how meaning and identity are at the core of every graphic design project and argues that the role and function of graphic design is, and always has been, communication. Drawing on a range of theoretical approaches including those of Derrida, Saussure, Foucault, and Barthes, and taking examples from advertising, magazines, illustration, website design, comics, greetings cards and packaging, Graphic Design as Communication looks at how graphic design contributes to the formation of social and cultural identities. Malcolm Barnard discusses the ways in which racial/ethnic groups, age groups and gender groups are represented in graphic design, as well as how images and texts communicate with different cultural groups. He also explores how graphic design relates to both European and American modernism, and its relevance to postmodernism and globalisation in the twenty-first century and asks why, when graphic design is such an integral part of our society and culture, it is not acknowledged and understood in the same way that art is.
