Visual Alchemy: The Fine Art Of Digital Montage
by Catherine McIntyreCatherine McIntyre, like many fine artists, created traditional art for decades before encountering the versatility of digital imaging technology. Free of her Rotring pens and scalpel, she now uses Photoshop to create her montages. Visual Alchemy explores McIntyre’s sources of inspiration as well as her methods, offering an aesthetic guide to composition, color, texture and all of the other means of communication that artists have at their disposal. While these concepts and techniques make use of Photoshop, they will apply to any digital imaging program and indeed to any medium, whether traditional or digital. Featuring McIntyre’s own art as well as that of artists around the globe, Visual Alchemy is an invitation to discover the artistic possibilities of picture making through digital montage.

Visual and Performing Arts Collaborations in Higher Education: Transdisciplinary Practices (The Arts in Higher Education)
by Julia Listengarten Keri WatsonThis book examines the role of the visual and performing arts in higher education and argues for the importance of socially engaged transdisciplinary practices, not just to the college curriculum but also to building an informed and engaged citizenry. The first chapter defines and offers an outline for conducting transdisciplinary research. Chapters two through five present examples of transdisciplinary projects facilitated in Central Florida between 2017 and 2022. Topics and methodological frameworks include ecocriticism and climate change, migration, poverty, and displacement, ageing and disability, and systemic racism and mass incarceration. Each chapter includes descriptions of the projects and outlines how they integrated the essential learning outcomes articulated by the American Association of Colleges and Universities in the Liberal Education and America’s Promise report. A concluding chapter offers reflections on the value of transdisciplinary collaborative work and poses questions for further discussions on the role of the arts in higher education. The book is designed for graduate and undergraduate students, faculty, and non-academics interested in engaging in transdisciplinary projects to address complex societal issues.

Visual Culture (PDF)
by Richard Howells Rosalind GillVisual Culture is an introductory textbook book on visual literacy, exploring how meaning is both made and transmitted in an increasingly visual world. It is designed to introduce students to the analysis of all kinds of visual texts, whether drawings, paintings, photographs, films, advertisements, television programmes or new media forms. The book is illustrated with copious examples that range from medieval painting to contemporary record covers and is written in a lively and engaging style, avoiding unnecessary jargon. The first part of the book is concerned with differing theoretical approaches to visual analysis, and includes chapters on iconology, form, art history, ideology, semiotics and hermeneutics. The merits and disadvantages of each are discussed, and there is a special focus on one seminal writer for each topic. The second part shifts from a theoretical to a medium–based approach and comprises chapters on fine art, photography, film, television and new media. These investigate the complex relationship between reality and visual representation. As a whole, this textbookbrings seemingly diverse approaches together under one roof while ultimately arguing for a polysemic approach to visual analysis. Each chapter concludes with a section of recommendations for further study. Visual Culture provides an ideal introduction for students taking courses in visual culture and communication in a wide range of disciplines, including media and cultural studies, sociology, art history and design.

Visual History und Geschichtsdidaktik: Bildkompetenz in der historisch-politischen Bildung (Reihe Geschichtswissenschaft #53)
by Christoph Hamann„der fotografie-unkundige wird der analfabet der zukunft sein.“ (Lázló Moholy-Nagy, 1928). Geschichte ist mehr denn je visualisierte Geschichte: das Lagertor von Auschwitz-Birkenau (1945), der Atompilz von Hiroshima (1945), der landende „Rosinenbomber“ in Berlin (1948), die Steinewerfer vom Potsdamer Platz (1953) die gescheiterte Flucht Peter Fechters (1962), das Napalm Girl (1972), die Anschläge vom 11. September 2001 – diese Fotografien haben sich tief im kollektiven Gedächtnis eingegraben. Der Historiker und Geschichtsdidaktiker Christoph Hamann untersucht die Fotografie als ein zentrales Medium der historischen Erinnerung. Er analysiert exemplarisch kanonisierte Schlüsselbilder und zeigt, wie mit diesen historische Deutungen transportiert werden. Diese fotografische visual history wird im Kontext der Geschichte der deutschen wie globalen Erinnerungskultur betrachtet. Ein besonderes Augenmerk wird auf die Ästhetik der Bilder geworfen. Denn die mediale Formatierung der kollektiven Geschichtswahrnehmung wird durch diese beeinflusst. Christoph Hamann räumt der Form des fotografischen Bildes eine semantische Funktion ein und verortet die Bilder in ikonografischen Traditionen. Der Einfluss von Visualisierungen auf das individuelle wie kollektive Geschichtsbewusstsein ist empirisch belegt – diese Erkenntnis ist für das historische Lernen von elementarer Bedeutung. Hamanns Ausführungen reflektieren deswegen die Notwendigkeit sowie die Möglichkeiten der Förderung einer kritischen Bildkompetenz in der historisch-politischen Bildung. Die historischen Wissenschaften müssen ihre ästhetische Unmündigkeit überwinden – im historiographischen, geschichtsdidaktischen wie unterrichtspragmatischen Interesse. Denn Moholy-Nagys Zukunft ist längst Gegenwart.

Visual Journeys Through Wordless Narratives: An International Inquiry With Immigrant Children and The Arrival
by Evelyn Arizpe Teresa Colomer Carmen Martínez-RoldánWinner of the Literacy Research Association's 2015 Edward B. Fry Book AwardImmigration is an ongoing, global phenomenon and schools and teachers in host countries must continually find new ways of working with the increasing numbers of immigrant pupils, including refugees and asylum seekers. Language and literacy are crucial for inclusion in a new context but these must be developed in spaces where these children feel safe to explore themes that resonate with their experiences; to express their understanding and to engage in intercultural exchange. Visual Journeys Through Wordless Narratives presents the exploration of response strategies to Shaun Tan's The Arrival. The inquiry was carried out in educational settings, with children from many different parts of the world, in four host countries: the UK, Spain, Italy and the USA. The findings reveal the benefits of using wordless narratives such as picturebooks and graphic novels together with visual strategies to support immigrant children's literary understandings and visual literacy. They also reveal the wealth of experiences the children bring with them which have the potential to transform educational practices.
