Utopia of the Manifesto
Vilnius Academy of Arts
Prof. Marius Bartkus
Utopia of the Manifesto analyses the contemporary designer’s situation between creative and commercial work. Industry and commerce always walked side by side with graphic design and pushed it into specific framework, which didn’t always allow for originality or discovery. The project’s goal is to reflect on the situation, talk and discuss. Statements of the manifesto are personal takes on the joy of discovery, creativity and principles of work. The icons could be perceived as separate works of art or as guidelines for the publication.
