Graphic design is a craft, existing for the sake of commerce and/or communication in general, which occasionally rises to the level of art when it transcends the limits of original client briefs and is absorbed into the canon of visual culture.

- You belittle graphc design a little by talking about 'client briefs'.. design doesn't have to be tied to a commercial deal.ribit
- I know that, it's why I said "and/OR communication in general". And by brief, that could be a self-initiated brief.gramme
- BTW I never get written briefs anymore, that is anything more elaborate than an email or a phone call.gramme
