If we want to rewrite the history of design, we must take its beginnings into account. The period preceding the Bauhaus, the importance of the Arts and Crafts movement and, above all, the achievements of women in graphic design have long been ignored in the presentation of the history of German design.
UN/SEEN brings together previously unknown material and sheds light on the lives and work of women designers in the fields of editorial design, poster design, typography, illustration and packaging design. Across ten chapters, UN/SEEN documents the findings of recent research and, through numerous examples, shows how successful and confident the first generation of women graphic designers was, as well as which discourses from that era continue to shape the discipline today.
UN/SEEN challenges traditional narratives and contributes to the debate on design and gender by providing new references. The book is complemented by the project's platform: www.unseen-women.design
