For
centuries, graphic art has been widely used to design
trademarks, labels, signage and other street advertising.
Early use of graphical symbols can be seen in coats of
arms, family crests and battle flags -- today's equivalent
of logo design for corporate identity and marketing.
Curated primarily from private collections, "Designed
to Sell" offers a glimpse into the different styles in
graphics, packaging, concepts of design and the "art
of seduction" in
advertising. See the show online. |
