The history of posters is rich in variations on the hand. In consumer posters, a hand presents desirable
products. But the hand can also take the form of a symbolically charged gesture in the political poster. In
cultural posters, the hand then becomes the emblem of the creative individual. Just as versatile as the
rhetoric of the hand are its diverse uses as a design element. In this volume, photographic, illustrative and
abstract graphic images add up to a small cultural history of the hand as an eloquent conveyor of messages.
