Possible thesis statements...







1.) Abram Games' poster for "Talk May Kill" is a great example of modernism, even though it lacks paradox, ambiguity, and uncertainty in the design.

2.) Tim Gough's "Siren Fest" for The Village Voice is an excellent representation of modernist work because it portrays the five themes required by Malcolm Barnard.

3.) Siggi Eggertsson's "Live on the Coke Side of Life" uses many elements that suggest modernism, despite his excessive use of ornamentation.

  1. MaryHelen: Interesting choices. The second one seems like it would be more difficult to argue as a modernist piece, (because it seems to be recent work in a 'retro' style) but that might make it a very interesting paper. - Liz
