The Graphic Century reveals the symbiotic relationship that exists between graphic design and art. Structured chronologically, the publication presents a survey of posters dating back to 1903. Although they are brought together from the archives of just one institution – the Whitechapel Gallery – they are emblematic of wider ideological, technical and aesthetic tendencies. 

Edited and introduced by Hannah Vaughan, The Graphic Century surveys the developments in visual communication since the Gallery’s launch. Featuring designs from 1903 – 2009 by Ashley; Baynard Press; Françoise Berserik & Hannah Oorthuys; Gunter Brüs; Bureau for Visual Affairs; J.D.H.
