Exploring Visual Design: The Elements and Principles, 4th Edition, Digital (e-Book and 25 printed Student Books)

By Joseph A. Gatto, Albert W. Porter, and Jack Selleck

A dynamic introduction to the building blocks of art.

Exploring Visual Design in digital textbook and print textbook form will teach students about the “grammar” of art and how people from other cultures and times have used a common visual language to express their own unique perspective. As students become fluent in this language, a wealth of studio opportunities help them find their own voice.
  • Captivating images from new art, architecture, and nature
  • In-depth profiles of individual artists and artwork
  • Informational interviews with professional artists
  • Samples of student artwork
  • Studio activities that promote collaboration and self-expression
