John Heartfield? I suppose that falls into your 'design during social change' category.
- taeric 12y agoAnd the survivor bias. Do you really think there were no other folks doing design work back then? Remember, the claim is that design as a whole was more instrumental in social change and whatnot. For that to be true, every other person doing design back then would have had to have been just as political.
