The following thesis explores the increasing importance of visual communication in the digital age and traces its origins through to an anticipated future. It seeks to identify what makes an effective image to capture the viewer's attention with recognition of cultural differences and differing personal tastes and requirements. The thesis shows how the advancement of technology has made all perspectives and viewpoints reachable. It also tracks the development of the image as a representative model of the abstract that can be manipulated and doctored by anyone with easily attainable equipment and the effect this has had on modern society. A particular reference is given on the influence of the Bauhaus and its teachers Wassily Kandinsky, László Moholy-Nagy and Johannes Itten in defining the boundaries of what is possible through visual communication and how its impact continues to this day.
\nA conclusion was made on the increasing dominance of the ever evolving visual communication as a means of exchanging information: that questions the benefits of it's technological advancement but that underlines its fundamental importance to our lives and concept of self.

Visual Communication provides an international forum for the growing body of work in numerous interrelated disciplines. Its broad coverage includes: still and moving images; graphic design and typography; visual phenomena such as fashion, professional vision, posture and interaction; the built and landscaped environment; the role of the visual in relation to language, music, sound and action.

My bachelor thesis is seeking relevant relationship between a photography and a painting. I am analyzing first part of Rosalind Krauss?s text Notes on the Index and I?m trying to apply her scheme of clash of two differently coded communications on other examples from history of art. I?m describing different levels of art piece The New Painting, which is the continuous link in my thinking. In this series is Elina Brotherus touching the relationship based on visual analogy, which I consider lame and at the same another relationship, which I consider relevant. In terms of this relationship I put digitally manipulated photography in the correct context and I am explaining, why it did not fundamentally change or flatten relationship between painting and photography. In the second part of the thesis I deal with the importance of author?s style in fine art and photography. I am comparing Matthias Grünewald?s Isenheim Altarpiece with a contemporary piece The Stations of the Cross made by Damien Hirst and David Bailey.

The study of visual communication is inherently multidisciplinary, comprising the wide-reaching and voluminous literature of art history and the philosophy of art and aesthetics; the development and use of charts, diagrams, and cartography; the history and theory of graphic design and typography; the history and theory of photography, cinema, and television studies; the perceptual physiology and cognitive psychology of visual apprehension; the impact of new visual technologies (including digitization, multimedia, and virtual realities); the concepts and teaching of visual literacy; and the boundless social and cultural issues surrounding practices of visual representation. Such an eclectic and newly developing field has reached little consensus about canonical texts. Its boundaries remain indistinct. Even the concept of visual imagery is loose, aggregating everything from mental reproductions of perceptions in eidetic imagery, dreams, and memory to the physical creation of pictorial material. Images are the most obvious of the wide-ranging forms of visual communication, which extend beyond “pictures” or icons into realms of abstract symbols, indexical signals, designs, and ideas humans use to communicate experience. The following bibliography focuses on visual elements and images in communication media. It acknowledges literature from other disciplinary traditions that influenced the rise of visual studies, but centers primarily on the developing visual studies literature within communication as a discipline and field.

The proliferation of digital platforms and the evolution of multimedia content have transformed how information is consumed and disseminated. This shift has led to a significant concern regarding the spread of visual misinformation, which encompasses false or misleading content conveyed through visual and auditory mediums. This chapter summarizes recent insights about visual misinformation, examining its definitions, categories, processing mechanisms, and implications. Drawing on recent studies and theoretical frameworks, the chapter explores how visual misinformation differs from textual misinformation in terms of cognitive and emotional processing. It also highlights the challenges in detecting and combating visual misinformation, especially with the emergence of deepfake technology and synthetic media. In response to these challenges, we discuss various approaches to reduce individual's susceptibility to visual misinformation, such as media literacy education and provenance cues. However, there remains a need for further research to assess the effectiveness of these interventions, understand their underlying mechanisms, and develop innovative strategies that address the evolving information landscape. Overall, this chapter emphasizes the urgency of addressing visual misinformation in the digital age and the need for nuanced interventions to safeguard the integrity of information.

Visual communication is the oldest form of communication and is a uniquely powerful one. Before written and spoken communication, humans communicated through non-verbal means such as eye contact, gestures and facial expressions, and touch. These primordial communication forms have persisted and evolved alongside written and spoken language and frequently appear together as multimodal communication: communication across more than one mode, such as advertisements that feature written words, sounds, and still or moving images. Today, much of visual communication is mediated through physical or digital means. For example, rather than observing a war firsthand, many individuals in historically peaceful areas rely on the professional vision produced by journalists or through eyewitness accounts produced or published by bystanders to view far-off conflicts. Much of this vision comes from smartphone cameras, which are responsible for about 90 per cent of the more than 3.2 billion photographs made each day. This chapter explores the attributes that make visual communication a unique communication mode. It continues by briefly overviewing visual communication forms and affordances and concludes by discussing key visual communication practices and principles that affect how visual messages are made and seen.
