Visual persuasion : the role of images in advertising
by Paul Messaris.
Call Number: HF5822 .M415 1997  
Located: Library North 4

The pictures in television commercials, magazine advertisements and other forms of advertising often convey meanings that cannot be expressed as well, or at all, through words or music. Visual Persuasion is an exploration of the uniquely visual aspects of advertising. Because of the implicit nature of visual argumentation and the relative lack of social accountability which images enjoy in comparison with words, pictures can be used to make advertising claims that would be unacceptable if spelled out verbally. From this starting point, Paul Messaris analyzes a variety of commercial, political and social issue advertisements. He also discusses the role of images in cross-cultural advertising.

Herbert Bayer and the Nazis
Bayer later tried to erase this period from his biography, describing it as “my advertising purgatory,” which is now the title of an exhibition devoted to his work at the Bauhaus Archive in Berlin.

Victor Brauner

Was I talking with Katie Welch about the  surrealist who lost one eye? IMHO he did his best work when he lost his depth perception.
