History

Page from the Book of Kells: Folio 114v, Decorated text. Tunc dicit illis
While Graphic Design as a discipline has a relatively recent history, graphic design-like activities span the history of humankind: from the caves of Lascaux, to Rome's Trajan's Column to the illuminated manuscripts of the Middle Ages, to the dazzling neons of Ginza. In both this lengthy history and in the relatively recent explosion of visual communication in the 20th and 21st centuries, there is sometimes a blurring distinction and over-lapping of advertising art, graphic design and fine art. After all, they share many of the same elements, theories, principles, practices and languages, and sometimes the same benefactor or client. In advertising art the ultimate objective is the sale of goods and services. In graphic design, "the essence is to give order to information, form to ideas, expression and feeling to artifacts that document human experience."

We can observe nowadays that the usage of this graphics is very common and very rampant. Every now and then people are tend to use modern technology because it helps do things more easier and possible. That's why the existence of this graphics and arts more captivated the attention of every individual. We will notice that the earth now is full of arts and graphics that become more useful and gives beauty to the surroundings. But sad to say because of the modernization there are instances that it may destroy our nature.
