In the United States, immediately after the war, the tradition of graphic decorative art seemed less enterprising in the United States than might have been expected. There were some concrete reasons. The slump of the thirties had immediately reduced expenditure on advertising. Advertising agencies developed a reluctance to use the poster as a front line method of promoting their clients products. Radio and later television both became more acceptable media and the poster suffered a dangerous decline. Photographic work began to become the norm, neither advertisers nor artists realizing how limited the emotional appeal of the process was. Pictorial posters also still kept to the traditional ‘good looking’ formula without that intelligent exploiting of new approaches through the new art movements which has made Americas graphic design so exiting in recent years. Artist Dapixara for his decorative art posters, using heavily black and white photographical techniques photomontage and simple graphic symbols.
