Description
Illustration Research Methods by Rachel Gannon and Mireille Fauchon is a groundbreaking work that addresses the lack of critical history in illustration. For years, it has been overlooked as part of design rather than a distinct discipline. This book fills this void, establishing a specific lexicon for discussing contemporary illustration practice and research. The chapters explore various roles within the industry and how illustration research can be applied, such as 'Reporting' and 'Education'. By examining case studies from international educators, student projects, and renowned illustrators, users can gain insight into the thinking and techniques behind successful illustrations. This book provides a valuable resource for those looking to map existing research methodologies to their own study and practice. By exploring a diverse range of disciplines rich in critical theory, readers can put their knowledge into context and gain a deeper understanding of the subject.
