Graphic Design at UCK

Stephen chose Robert Rauschenberg as the subject of his artist retrospective. Tate Modern was his chosen venue for the exhibition.
.
As with the decade assignment for this unit, Stephen submitted a wide array of background research leading up to his final piece which is a 20-page booklet from cover to cover. The work, including over 50 pages of initial planning, was submitted in a professional binder (and a heavy one at that!)

For his artist retrospective project, Ewan chose to showcase the work of film maker, M. Night Shyamalan, the brains behind The Sixth Sense, Signs and The Happening, among others.
.
He chose Tate Modern as the gallery to hold his exhibition and designed a booklet set to mimic the aspect ration of a widescreen film.
.
The booklet had to be a minimum of 1,000 words covering the historical context and era in which Shyamalan worked, his influences and biography.
.
The following final submission was sent along with a folder of research (not shown):

This is another interpretation of the artist retrospective assignment for HNGD 002. Michelle took a look at the life and work of Swiss colour theorist Johannes Itten. She chose Tate Modern as the venue for her exhibition.

Along with a sizable binder full of printed research materials, Michelle submitted a colourful, fold-out booklet measuring approximately 4 x 6 inches and her bibliography as follows:

I’ll try to post Michelle’s decade assignments tomorrow.

Rosie chose the infamous Tim Burton to focus on for her artist retrospective assignment in HNGD 002. After researching his life and work, she had to put together a 1000-word exhibition booklet that included Burton’s work and captions she would include, a bit about the historical context and era in which he worked, his influences and a bibliography. It should also include the layout of the gallery which, in Rosie’s case, was the Serpentine in London.
.
Again, this unit focuses on research and should be submitted with a folder of evidence and a bibliography.
.
Her work on this assignment landed Rosie a distinction and a recommendation to get this booklet printed out professionally which she is planning to do for her portfolio.
