This special issue arises from the project “Visions of the Future: Iberian Visual Culture after Democracy, 1974-1998,” a collaborative research project that delves into the role of visual communication in the unique political landscape of the Iberian Peninsula (including other territories in Spain and Portugal) during its transition to democracy in the late 20th century.
Includes two original articles, two visual essays and a book review that examine how communication design served as a “pivot of change” and engaged with the cultural complexities of this historical context.
