Characteristics of "Pomo"
-Borrows concepts from a multitude of design movements and theories from outside design
-Contradictions (eg: Grunge & Clean styles in the same layout)
-High art and low art mixed together
-Combines old and new, good and bad. The lines between these things have been blurred.
-Mixed media
-Collage, photomontage, pastiche, desconstruction
-More a way of thinking than an actual style
MILTON GLASER
He was born 26th June 1929 in New York.
He always wanted to be an artist and in 1954 he founded "Push Pin Studio".
He rejected the ideals of international style and did his own thing. He used drawings in his designs, which had long since been forgotten about with the introduction of photography.
He describes his style as random as he has done such a wide variety of works.
1973 - New York City Tourism Campaign. This campaign still runs today.
1987 - World Health Organisation, International AIDs symbol and poster.
