    But graphic design is not just about commerciaism. Graphic design is like a visual language for communication. Limiting design to just the commercial world is a bad thing. that is the problem. most institutions and persons don't see beyonf this shallow realm. graphic design is about communicating ones ideas, yes it could be commercial, but iit is definatley not limited to that. As far as design not being art, i will agree, but it is a very fine line, and a line which can be crossed (for example, Constructivism). And Calarts is also far from just exercises in form and style. Form and style are only a small portion of what needs go into a piece of design. That is one of the problems with graphic design today. it has no substanance and no direction.
