The usage of typography and art can be seen in everyday life through extensive methods, but sometimes they are both used differently depending on certain events of time periods. In this week’s articles provided, they bring awareness to this idea and how for better and for worse these art forms were changed.
One of the major aspects brought up was the Bauhaus and how typography and art could only be studied by students. The author of the article mentions how this creates an isolation between the artists and the connection with the handicraft industry and life. Art according to the article is not something can just be studied which was one of the many mistakes of the Bauhaus. Art itself is not only something can be used to create or study, as different forms of communications come from it. But not through normal communication as with language, some art forms such as photography according to the second article gives its own communication through visual presentation which in a way can be a future step to how art is perceived by some.
In terms of advancing the future of art, the final article of the week does touch upon certain elements of what could be possible and what benefits and risks it could bring. Most notably, how changing the future of art can also change the methods of communication drastically even with simple revitalizations as small as a new alphabet. While there are many different demands for advancing art either as a service or fine art, the possibilities may seem endless as well as a risk to not repeat mistakes made with previous attempts to change art forms.
