Visual Communication provides an international forum for the growing body of work in numerous interrelated disciplines.
The journal’s definition of the visual is broad and includes:
- still and moving images
- graphic design and typography
- visual phenomena such as fashion, professional vision, posture and interaction
- the built and landscaped environment
- the role of the visual in relation to language, music, sound and action
Visual Communication is interdisciplinary bringing together articles from a range of subjects, including:
anthropology * communication studies * discourse studies and semiotics * media and cultural studies * sociology * disciplines dealing with history, theory and practice of visual design.
“Visual Communication offers a high quality forum of publication for articles on the crucial visual dimension of language and communication. I am sure that for scholars and students in many disciplines of the humanities and social sciences, this new journal will be an indispensable resource for learning, teaching and research.” Teun van Dijk
