Includes bibliographical references and index.The writing on the wall -- Visual storytelling -- The art of selling -- Legendary graphic artists."Graphic art is a category of fine arts.

Graphic art is a broad term historically, and primarily, reserved for 2-D art processes and visual artistic expressions such as drawing, painting, photography, illustrating, calligraphy, etching, printmaking, and graphic design. Textural elements are important in graphic art and may be achieved through the choice of the medium and even the paper, canvas, stone, or wall-including cave walls-that are used as the foundation for the artwork"--Ages 14-18Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher.

Threads of life : a history of the world through the eye of a needle / by Hunter, Clare,author.(CARDINAL)850474;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 300-305)."A globe-spanning history of sewing, embroidery, and the people who have used a needle and thread to make their voices heard. From the political propaganda of the Bayeux Tapestry, World War I soldiers coping with PTSD, and the maps sewn by schoolgirls in the New World, to the AIDS quilt, Hmong story clothes, and pink pussyhats, women and men have used the language of sewing to make their voices heard, even in the most desperate of circumstances. Threads of Life is a chronicle of identity, protest, memory, power, and politics told through the stories of needlework. Clare Hunter, master of the craft, threads her own narrative as she takes us over centuries and across continents-- from medieval France to contemporary Mexico and the United States, and from a POW camp in Singapore to a family attic in Scotland-- to celebrate the age-old, universal, and underexplored beauty and power of sewing. Threads of Life is an evocative and moving book about the need we have to tell our story." --
