Expressive Representations -EventAbstract
The expressive representations of an event in contemporary graphic design revolve around the artistic output that results from an analysis combining both visual and intellectual aspects to convey an impactful and attractive message. This message interacts with the audience while preserving the event's expressive, aesthetic, and moral value. From here, the research problem arises concerning how to design an impactful message that expresses the content of the event in its details. The research problem is framed in the following question: What are the expressive representations of an event in contemporary graphic design? The importance of the research lies in studying these expressive representations and the attributes that emerge from them, which researchers can benefit from in their practical works in graphic design. The aim of the research is to understand the expressive representations of an event in contemporary graphic design. Chapter two defines the first axis as understanding the concept of the event, while the second axis addresses expressive representations in graphic design. It then discusses the key indicators of the theoretical framework. Chapter three includes the research community and sample analysis, followed by chapter four, which contains the results and conclusions, and the research concludes with a list of sources and references.
