Design Research Publications Art and Design Journals Retrospective ReVIEW

“Researchers into the history of visual culture will find this resource invaluable.”

ReVIEW is an indispensable new service that aims to digitize many of the most important decorative and finearts journals published in Europe and the USA during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, making them available for the first time in a searchable form online. It will be a significant contribution to art history scholarship and could open up many new areas of research. PROFESSOR JONATHAN WOODHAM DIRECTOR, CENTRE FOR RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT (ARTS & ARCHITECTURE), UNIVERSITY OF BRIGHTON


Benefits for libraries of ReVIEW

Runs of journals digitized for the ReVIEW project now seldom come on the market and when they do they are usually priced well beyond the means of all but the wealthiest of libraries. Our aim is to make these journals available at a price that most libraries can afford.

ReVIEW will save on the cost of inter-library loan charges,which, depending on the usage of these journals, could be substantial

ReVIEW will result in the reduction of shelf space – a precious commodity for many libraries

Most of the art journals from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries have not been comprehensively indexed, which has been an important bar to research in the past. However, the journals covered by ReVIEW will be fully searchable

When available online an infinite number of users will have access anywhere to the journals covered by ReVIEW –ideal for distance learning

Digitization will enable libraries to conserve and protect the original copies of these journals

The price of THE STUDIO and DEUTSCHE KUNST UND DECORATION on ReVIEW is £495.00 / $990.00 (for both titles), followed by an annual access charge of £95.00 / $180.00 (special rates are available to small institutions and consortia).

THE STUDIO was one of the most respected and influential art journals published in Britain. It was international in its coverage, and contained long, often well illustrated, articles on all aspects of the decorative, fine and applied arts. It included contributions from many of the leading art critics of the day, e.g. Aymer Vallance, Fernand Knopff, A. Lys Baldry, etc. In addition to long, well-illustrated articles, each issue of THE STUDIO, also contained a round-up of the latest art news, reports on recent exhibitions, and book reviews.

THE STUDIO played animportant role in promoting trends and developments in contemporaryart and was largely responsible establishing the reputations of many artists, notable among whom were Aubrey Beardsley, James McNeill Whistler and the artists of the Glasgow School.

DEUTSCHE KUNST UND DECORATION, sometimes known as ‘the German Studio’, was launched four years after its British counterpart, it is similar both in size and format to THE STUDIO, and, like its predecessor, focused primarily on the work of contemporary artists. It also included book and exhibition reviews and news items.Although international in its coverage, DEUTSCHEKUNST UND DECORATION was biased towards German, Austrian and Central European art. It included extensive reports on the Expostition Universelleet Industrielle held in Paris in 1900, the Esposizione Internationale d’Arte Decorativa Modena held in Turin in 1902, and the work of the Wiener Werkstätte and the Deutsche Werkstätten.

Why these titles were selected for Phase 1 of Design Abstracts Retrospective

1. Commercial Art, Commercial Art and Industry, Art and Industry and Design for Industry

Commercial Art, Commercial Art and Industry, Art and Industry and Design for Industry were published by the offices of The Studio in London and New York between 1926-1959. Uniquely, they were the only journals issued during these crucial years of the middle of the twentieth century that not only covered the full spectrum of design activity, but, were international in their scope. 

Commercial Art, originated in November 1922 and was initially published by Commercial Art Ltd., London. The journal was acquired by The Studio in July 1926, who kept the title for the next six years.  During this period, they broadened the coverage of the journal to include all aspects of graphic design and commercial art, including press advertising, packaging, exhibition and display design, poster design and typography. By the early 1930s, the journal began to include articles on, industrial design and related areas of design. Consequently, the title was changed to Commercial Art and Industry in January 1933.  By 1936, although the amount of coverage of graphic design had not diminished in the journal, 'commercial art' as a term was becoming less fashionable, and in July 1936 Commercial was dropped from the title, and for the next 22 years the journal was known as Art and Industry.  By the late 1950s, Art and Industry was facing competition from a plethora of new design magazines including  Industrial Design in the USA and Design and Designer in the UK. In an attempt to stem falling sales, the journal was repackaged and renamed Design for Industry in January 1959.  The long overdue changes to the journal, however, were too late and Design for Industry ceased publication in December 1959.

Although, strictly speaking, Commercial Art, Commercial Art and Industry, Art and Industry and Design for Industry, were one journal, with a continuous sequence of 66 volume, to all intense and purposes, they can be seen as four separate titles, each with a distinctly different format and identity.

Many of the leading names in contemporary art and design wrote articles for Commercial Art, Commercial Art and Industry, Art and Industry and Design for Industry including Jan Tschichold, Jean Carlu, Man Ray, Paul Rand, Wyndham Lewis, Sergei Eisenstein, Walter Dorwin Teague, László Moholy-Nagy, Harold Van Doren, Walter Nurnberg, Peter Muller-Munk, Percy V. Bradshaw, Eric Fraser, W.G. Raffé, Frank Brangwyn, Tom Purvis, Frank Pick, Albert Reimann, Harold Curwen, Cyril Connolly, Ashley Havinden, Misha Black, Hans Schleger, Raymond Loewy, Geoffrey Grigson, Steen Eiler Rasmussen, Raymond McGrath, Tom Eckersley, Abram Games, F.H.K. Henrion, William Crawford, Gordon Russell, F.R. Yerbury, Gaby Schreiber, Lynton Lamb, R.D. Russell, Kenneth Clark, John Gloag, Austin Cooper, Alistair Morton, Madge Garland, Sadie Speight, George Him, Jack Beddington, James Gardner, Hulme Chadwick

Jan Tschichold, a regular contributor, wrote articles on the 'New Typography', El Lissitzky, Otto Neurath and photomontage; Paul Rand gave his views on how to devise of a successful advertising campaign; Raymond Loewy discussed the role of the industrial designer; Man Ray explained what fascinated him about the medium of photography; Eisenstein explained why he thought that cinema is "the highest stage of embodiment of the potentialities and aspirations of each of the arts"; Moholy-Nagy spoke in detail about the Chicago Institute of Design's approach to teaching industrial design; Abram Games analyzed his approach to design; the Danish architect Steen Eiler Rasmussen questioned why advertisers do not make the most of the design features of sports goods when advertising them; Walter Dorwin Teague, another regular contributor, reviewed the exhibition 'Contemporary American Industrial Art', held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, November 1934-January 1935, which he believed failed to adequately represent contemporary industrial art, and described the planning of the New York World's Fair, etc.

In addition to several articles and features on the New York World's Fair, Commercial Art, Commercial Art and Industry, Art and Industry and Design for Industry contained articles on the 'Century of Progress' World's Fair held in Chicago in 1933, Internationale des Arts et Techniques dans la Vie Moderne which opened in Paris 1937, the Empire Exhibition held at Glasgow in 1938; the Exposition Universelle et International (Expo 58) held in Brussels in 1958, etc.

Also included were articles on the Bauhaus, the Festival of Britain, the use of plastics in design, London Transport posters, the history of the Leica camera, the design of tractors, developments in modern Swedish domestic design, travel advertising, Alliance Graphique Internationale (AGI), the role design can play in the elimination of waste in industry, the interior design of cruise ships, the design of television and radio sets, television advertising, fashion photography, Japanese commercial art, aircraft design, car styling, etc.

Virtually every major figure in the world of design from the years 1926-59 were featured in the pages of Commercial Art, Commercial Art and Industry, Art and Industry and Design for Industry. For a full list of the artists and designers who work was included in these publications see Architects, Designers, Craftworkers, Studios, Workshops, etc. included in Design Abstracts Retrospective and Design ProFILES

2. The Studio Yearbook of Decorative Art and Decorative Art

The Studio Yearbook of Decorative Art, and its variant titles, played a major role in documenting developments in architecture and design during the years 1906-1980.  There was no comparable publication published anywhere in the world. They were extensively illustrated [the first 40 volumes alone (1906-1950) contained over 10,000 images]. They are, hence, an invaluable source for the attribution and dating of both objects and buildings.

During the period so far covered by Design Abstracts Retrospective (1906-1950), the yearbooks were published by the offices of The Studio in London and New York. It was also for a published for some years in Paris with an introduction in French.

The first volume of the yearbooks was issued in 1906 and in format and content it changed very little over the next fifty years. The principal subjects covered included domestic architecture, interior design, furniture design, ceramics, glass, jewellery, metalwork, wallpaper, mural painting and textile design. The 1906 edition focused almost exclusively on British architecture and design. The 1907 volume contained surveys of contemporary Austrian and German architecture and design. The 1908 edition also included a survey of French decorative art. From then on, the yearbooks were international in their coverage.

Between 1906-1926, the title was The Studio Yearbook of Decorative Art (or sometimes The Studio Year-Book of Decorative Art). The one exception was 1921 when the variant title The Studio Yearbook of Applied Artwas used.  In 1927 the title was changed to Decorative Art, which it retained for the next 35 years. In 1962 the yearbook became Decorative Art and Modern Interiors. It changed again in 1974, becoming Decorative Art in Modern Interiors. The yearbooks ceased publication in 1980. 

Notable among those who contributed articles to The Studio Yearbooks were Le Corbusier, Bruno Taut, Aymer Vallance, M.H. Baillie Scott, H. Inigo Triggs, Erik Wettergren, Bernard Rackham, A.E. Taylor, Frank Brangwyn, C.H. Reilly, Lawrence Weaver, Dorothy Todd, Maxwell Ayrton, Marice Dufrène, P. Morton Shand, John de La Valette, John Gloag

The names of those whose work featured in the pages of the yearbooks reads like a who's who of 20th century design. It also included designs produced by the major design schools, organizations, workshops and studios, such as the Bauhaus, the Wiener Werkstätte, Deutcher Werkbund, the Österreicher Werkbund, Schweizerischer Werkbund, the Art Workers Guild, the Guild of Handicraft, the Suomen Käsityön Ystävät, Svenska Slöjdföreningen, Föreningen for Svensk Hemslöjd, the Suomen Käsityön Ystävät , the Canadian Handicrafts Guild, the Svensk Hemslöjd, the American Union of Decorative Artists and Craftsmen, the Leipziger Künstlerbund, the Wiener Werkstätte , the Münchner Werkstätten, the Deutscher Werkstätten, the Werkstätten der Stadt Halle, Staatlich-Städtische Kunstgewerbeschule, the Zweybrück Werkstätte, the Vereinigte Werkstätten für Kunst im Handwerk, etc.   For a full list of the artists, designers who work was featured in The Studio Yearbooks see Architects, Designers, Craftworkers, Studios, Workshops, etc. included in Design Abstracts Retrospective and Design ProFILES

3. Graphis

Zurich, Switzerland: Amstutz & Herdeg 'Graphis' Press, 1944-

Since it was launched in September 1944, Graphis has been one of the most influential design journals published in Europe [now published in the USA]

The journal was the brainchild of two enterprising Swiss designers, Walter Amstutz and Walter Herdeg, who, in 1938, had founded the advertising and graphic design studio Grafisches Atelier und Werbeberatung Amstutz & Herdeg in Zurich. In their introduction to the first issue of Graphis, Amstutz and Herdeg, who were the journal's co-editors for several years, wrote that the aim of the publication was to

"...bring art into touch with everyday life...Our articles and criticism will deal not only with pure art, not only with the graphic arts in a narrower sense, but with every sphere of applied art. Collaborators, artists , scholars and experts here and abroad will give their views in these pages on all vital problems of the artistic world.

Graphis sets out, in short, to provide stimulating material for all who by inclination or profession have to do with art. Richly and tastefully illustrated and produced with the greatest typographical care".

One of the motivations behind starting Graphis was the need to fill the vacuum left after the pioneering German graphic design and advertising journal Gebrauchsgraphik ceased publication in January 1944.   Gebrauchsgraphik [which will be covered in later editions of Design Abstracts Retrospective] was begun by Hermann Karl Frenzel (1882?-1937) in 1924. After twenty of publication it was forced to close in the latter years of World War Two. [It was re-launched in 1950]

Like Gebrauchsgraphic, Graphis, from the outset, was international in its coverage, a fact reflected in the subtitle of its first issue - Internationale Monatsschrift für Freie Graphik. Gebrauchsgraphik und Dekoration / International Monthly for Graphic and Applied Art.  The first five issues included articles on the French calligrapher Louis Bardedor, British war posters, Chinese stone engraving, Edvard Munch as a graphic artist, contemporary Swiss poster art, Japanese matchboxes, stage decorations by A.M. Cassandre, Tass 'Window' posters, and the graphic poetry of Jean Cocteau.  Also, like Gebrauchsgraphik, Amstutz and Herdeg produced Graphis with dual language text - German and English. It also included French translations of some articles, thus ensuring a wider audience for the journal. However, unlike Gebrauchgraphik, Graphis did not restrict its coverage to graphic design and advertising, but included occasional articles on painting, and the applied arts, although, for many years the visual arts were the focus of the journal. 

An important feature of Graphis has always been the length of its articles and the high-quality and number of its illustrations.  In addition, Amstutz and Herdeg devoted many of the early issues of the magazine to particular themes. For example, the 277 pages of no.14, 1946, were entirely devoted to contemporary British graphic design.

Few graphic designers of note have escaped the pages of Graphis. For a list of those included in the 16 volumes of Graphis so far covered by Design Abstracts Retrospective (1944-1960) see Architects, Designers, Craftworkers, Studios, Workshops, etc. included in Design Abstracts Retrospective and Design ProFILES

Note: Graphis is now published by Graphis Inc., 307 Fifth Avenue, 10th Floor, New York, NY 10016, USA [See: http://www.graphis.com/]

4. Posters & Their Designers, Art and Publicity, Posters & Publicity

Posters & Their Designers, published by the offices of The Studio in London and New York in 1924, was the first volume of what, after a series of title changes, including Art and Publicity (1925) and Posters and Publicity (1926-1929), became Modern Publicity, the longest-running and most important graphic design and advertising annual.  Important, because, from the outset, it was both extensively illustrated and international in its coverage.    The title Modern Publicity was retained until 1985 when it became World Advertising Review. Design Abstracts Retrospective will be indexing this publication in its entirety over the next two years.  For a list of the many hundreds of designers whose work featured in Posters & Their Designers, Art and Publicity, Posters & Publicity see Architects, Designers, Craftworkers, Studios, Workshops, etc. included in Design Abstracts Retrospective and Design ProFILES

5. Designers in Britain

Designers in Britain was published between 1947-1971 by Allan Wingate and André Deutsch on behalf of the Society of Industrial Artists (later Society of Industrial Artists and Designers). Design Abstracts Retrospective has so far indexed volume 1, 1947. When complete, this will provide a valuable of British design activity between the late 1940s and the early 1970s.
For a list of the many hundreds of designers whose work featured in Designers in Britain see Architects, Designers, Craftworkers, Studios, Workshops, etc. included in Design Abstracts Retrospective and Design ProFILES

There is sometimes some uncertainty over dates and places associated with designers, for example:

Walter Grieder was born in Basle, Switzerland on 21 November 1914 [or 24 November 1914 - sources differ].

In the case of this entry, we believe the former date to be the correct date, but there is some uncertainty. We will leave the second date in the profile until the correct date has been ascertained.

Inevitably, given the number of entries in Design ProFILES, there may be some inaccuracies.  We would be grateful if you could draw these to our attention.

We will, of course, acknowledge your contribution to the profile

 

Reading Design Abstracts Retrospective

Design Abstracts Retrospective not only contains abstracts of all the articles in the journals and annuals covered but, indexes all relevant images.

It is worth bearing in mind that an image in a journal or annual will invariably be accompanied by text, which, in some cases can be quite substantial and sometimes as, if not more, informative than an article
