design for the other 90%
“The majority of the world’s designers focus all their efforts on developing products and services exclusively for the richest 10% of the world’s customers. Nothing less than a revolution in design is needed to reach the other 90%.” —Dr. Paul Polak, International Development Enterprises

modernist photographers of eastern europe
(from national gallery of art exhibition website) Across Austria, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Hungary, and Poland, from World War I to the end of the World War II, photography fired the imagination of hundreds of progressive artists, provided a creative outlet for thousands of devoted amateurs, and became a symbol of modernity for millions through its use in print and advertising. In the aftermath of World War I, the face of central Europe had changed profoundly: empires had collapsed and fledgling nation-states had taken their place (see map). This period of change ushered in the modern era, a deeply uncertain prospect, full of possibilities but also of anxieties; photographic images served as the ideal vehicle to promote or question modernity.
