Revue Faire #53 - Graphic Designers as Iconographers
Critical publications dedicated to the analysis of Graphic Design are sadly few and far between today, particularly in France, but also in Europe as a whole. Adopting an analytical and critical posture with regard to the forms and activities of Graphic Design, Sacha Léopold and François Havegeer established in 2017 a printed publication that deals with these practices.
This issue:
What happens when contemporary graphic designers reclaim an iconographic tradition that artists themselves once borrowed from design? Tracing a lineage from the painter who drew from life, to the artist who reinterpreted images and texts, to the curator-artist who assembled ready-mades, this essay explores the shifting authorship of images across centuries. In a world saturated with visual references, Chancogne asks: Who, today, holds the torch of iconography - the artist, the designer, or both?
