Design Observer: writings about design & culture
Posted on July 24th, 2006 by wil
Pentagram’s Michael Bierut comments on The National Design Award Communication Design winners’ political statement to theWhite House in his Design Observer article. The article is well worth the read as it gives the briefest of overviews regarding American politics and design.
The whole CommD declining the invitation is an interesting, if not empty, gesture, to be sure. My favorite take on the controversy is Michael’s note:
“What we have here, then, is a symbolic protest to a symbolic event.”
BAM! Ouch! Served!
