VRS: Degenerate Art

Editorial Design
2018

VRS: Degenerate Art from the 1930s is an exhibition that focuses on the term adopted by the Nazi Party in Germany in an attempt to ridicule and embarrass the modern artists of the time. This book was an opportunity to celebrate the art, voices and social movement that came from an oppressive and dark time in European art history. Throughout my research, the idea of an artist going against the natural order of things inspired my layout to communicate rebellion throughout the layout design. Effectively I was inspired to break the grid, shift photographs and disrupt the order of the columns to embody the spirit of breaking free.


The book reads as a system using typography for the main sections to represent the idea of constriction. The book contains a chronological timeline of the events throughout that period of time. Images are being used to break the orderly system of the columns with text to represent rebellion by going against the status quo.
