Postcards epitomize the complex history of visual culture. These often nostalgic, inexpensive mementos of commercial culture have also been carriers, even instigators, of colonialist exoticism and political propaganda. They straddle the by now largely obliterated line between 'high' and 'low' art, between an earlier modernist art history and more recent work in visual(...)

Summary:
Postcards epitomize the complex history of visual culture. These often nostalgic, inexpensive mementos of commercial culture have also been carriers, even instigators, of colonialist exoticism and political propaganda. They straddle the by now largely obliterated line between 'high' and 'low' art, between an earlier modernist art history and more recent work in visual culture. This illustrated volume brings together the latest interdisciplinary research on postcards as a significant area of scholarly inquiry.

Summary:
Le livre est au centre de multiples débats. Le peuple suisse a refusé par référendum une réglementation de son prix. Les diffuseurs sont accusés par la Commission de la concurrence de pratiques cartellaires. La librairie indépendante est menacée par la vente en ligne. L'avènement du numérique bouleverse notre rapport au livre et aux contenus, et fait apparaître de nouveaux acteurs. Pour autant ce territoire situé au carrefour interculturel de l'Europe a aussi connu ses riches heures et de grandes entreprises éditoriales y ont vu le jour, qui ont essaimé largement au-delà de ses frontières. De ce monde en ébullition et souvent méconnu des lecteurs que nous sommes, de ses multiples enjeux aussi, François Vallotton dresse un portrait clair et vivant qui témoigne de la place intime et essentielle que le livre occupe dans la société.

Summary:
Posters circulated in Japan simultaneously with the country's swift reconstruction and economic revival after the Second World War. If the first generation of poster designers was mostly guided by western modernism, searching for a universal and functional way of communication, the following generations from the 1970s onwards increasingly drew on their own pictorial tradition and maintained marked individual approaches. This was not least a reaction to the west's fascination with a poster culture with very different parameters and arguments. Until today, the Japanese poster functions most notably as a highly aesthetic image advertisement and indoor medium, presupposing the conception of the designer as an artist.
