This book is a compilation of writings from 20 issues of GRAPHIC released over a five-year period between 2007 and 2011. Since the text in GRAPHIC mainly consists of interviews with graphic designers, most of the words collected in its pages come directly from the mouths of the designers themselves. If there is one common thread running through all the issues, it is the effort to highlight the graphic design process and mind-set by focusing on the independent approaches of its practitioners. Our main interest has been in the ways contemporary graphic design has been branching out, with each issue dedicated to figuring out how to record these changes. What sources do we look to for the energy that drives new currents in graphic design? In our case, we identified them in terms of two major themes in graphic design: “independence” and “expansion.” These are the links that join the different topics found in each issue. By distilling 20 issues of GRAPHIC into a single volume, we hope to make the individual meaning of each of them clearer, and to help the reader gain a general perspective on today’s graphic design “scene.”
