Nationalism and Internationalism (v. 1) (Design in the 20th Century S.) - Tapa blanda

Volume One in the "Design in the 20th Century" series, this volume looks at the ways in which designers have addressed both the national and international context in which they have worked in this century. Text and illustrations show the positive response to avant garde ideas and the belief in the social relevance of design on an international level. By contrast, the varied responses to materials, techniques and sources of ideas to reinforce national identity are also considered.
