This study investigates the relationship between fine art and advertising art. It analyzes when, how, to what extent, and why a single art movement, such as Art Deco, is reflected in American magazines advertisements during 1915-1935. Art Deco is the decorative art movement during the 1920's and 1930's. Two approaches were selected: (1) a qualitative, historic study of secondary sources and (2) a quantitative content analysis of advertisements in Ladies' Home Journal, Saturday Evening Post, and Vogue magazines. Results of the qualitative research show that during this so-called golden age of advertising a growing number of contemporaneous visual artists participated in the design of advertising and helped it develop into a business force. Even though the roots of Art Deco go as far back as 1909, Art Deco advertisements did not appear in these selected magazines until 1925 when the new art movement was formally introduced to an international public in Paris. Art Deco affected the design of typefaces, advertising and magazine layout, and all forms of printed mass communication media. Agencies and individual art directors recognized the selling power of illustrations and promoted the use of either fine art in advertising, pioneered by the N. W. Ayer advertising agency, or fine art integrated into the principles of advertising, pioneered by the J. Walter Thompson advertising agency. The latter resulted in the creation of a new profession, that of the commercial artist. The quantitative approach was to test the feasibility of content analysis as a research methodology for pictorial material. The findings suggest that conventional content analysis, even if modified, may not be an appropriate approach to evaluate an abstract visual concept such as art. The study covers a crucial period during which fine art develops into advertising art, and during which fine art changes from being an adjunct to advertising to becoming an integral part of the advertising message.Subjects--Topical Terms:
