Although I briefl.y touched upon conceptual, analysis in my earl.letbooks, whenever I go back to review them I always am regretfulthat I didnt expand that area. Teaching graphic design in theUnited States since 2002 has offered me a good opportunityto experience and appreciate American graphic design as wellas design education in person. I have al.so had the privilege ofworking with some skillful American designers and teachers. Asa result, I revisited the idea of publishing a book with a specialfocus on the design process. And since many young Chinese are learning to speak English, I felt it was important to use bothChinese and English simultaneous[y, which would allow readerswith English skiffs to avoid ideas being "lost in translation" andapprehend more genuinely the books content.
The Pennsylvania State University, where Im presently teaching,is an important research institution in the United States andthe graphic design program at Penn State is also one of thetop programs in the country. The head of the program, LannySommese, is an internationally known designer who has beenpracticing, teaching and writing about graphic design for nearly40 years. In short.
陳放,是國(guó)際著名的平面設(shè)計(jì)師,他曾在法國(guó)肖蒙國(guó)際海報(bào)暨平面設(shè)計(jì)節(jié)、美國(guó)科羅拉多國(guó)際海報(bào)雙年展以及斯洛伐克特爾納瓦海報(bào)三年展舉辦過(guò)桂冠個(gè)人作品展。此外,他還編撰和出版了10多七設(shè)計(jì)書(shū)籍,F(xiàn)與蘭尼·索曼斯一道執(zhí)教于賓州州立大學(xué)。

Some students thrived in this environment, others just barelyheld on, but here is the truth: everyone I saw who entered theprogram and stuck with it emerged a better designer. Lannywould evaluate each students level of abil.ity and judge the workaccordingly. If routinely weak students real.l.y busted their buttsand made a breakthrough, theyd be praised, even if the resu!.tsneeded a lot more work. Conversely, if he sensed that one of theclass"stars" was obviousty coasting, he was merciless. I dont thinkhis criticisms would have had as much sting if he were a meretheorist. He was not. Lanny ran a thriving one-man design studioout of his omce, and he would entist seniors as apprentices onvarious projects in a program called the Practicum. This allowedus to put ideas formed in class to the test o1: actual c!.ients. It wasan eye-opening laboratory that showed us what we were to be upagainst when we left, and how to get chalJenging ideas approved.And they were——Lannys work had already been featured inCommunication Arts, Print and Idea magazines.
Added to this was his love of silkscreening posters. Even thenLannys reputation as a world-renowned poster maker was wellestabtished. He had fallen under the spelt of the Potish circusposter movement o1: the sixties, and applied that styles.
