Abstract(s)
This Project Work aims to discuss and understand the importance of typography in visual arts and its relationship with the emerging cultural movements of the 20th Century. It starts with an analysis of the early decades, and the appearance of so-called modern typography, as well as the use of collage techniques in artistic works. Following that, the discussion moves on to the advent of typographic poetry and its contribution to the renewal of the art of writing during this period, especially in what regards the transformation of language into image; also, the cultural phenomena affected at the end of the century by the inclusion of typography in contemporary art will be under analysis. One of the main theses of this Work supports the idea of combining elements, using verbal and visual codes, and reflecting on artistic movements, and their historical origins, that involve the universes of collage, typographic poetry and arts. This is done by observing and studying how the ideologies of the beginning of the century tended to break paradigms, something borne fruit from the need for a socio-political and cultural redefinition, a factor that became a mainstay thereon in the practice of art, and ended up infiltrating and reshaping several artistic, with typography as a fundamental guideline with which to legitimize these new trends. Finally, after completion of the theoretical research, a practical physical project will be carried out and presented, in which some intervention typographic and prints techniques applied on paper and fabric. The will culminate in an exhibition of works created during the graduate research period, representing an empirical proof of concept that will serve as a proper conclusion of the work presented here.
