摘要
Marie Neurath是信息设计的先驱,她与人共同开发了图形方法Isotype,并共同创立了Isotype研究所。本文阐述了玛丽1946年在英国比尔斯顿举办的一个教育展览,倡导在比尔斯顿的一个工人阶级社区开展贫民窟清理项目。在十多个月的时间里,玛丽精心设计了十二张图表,帮助观众理解该项目对健康和幸福的重要性。尽管玛丽是Isotype最有远见的公共教育计划之一,但她最初的贡献尚不清楚,部分原因是一位新来的镇职员在最后一刻改变了住房展览,带来了蚂蚁农场和相关漫画等“景点”。这篇文章引用了雷丁大学奥托和玛丽·诺伊拉斯同位素收藏的信件、草图和笔记,表明玛丽的作品应该被公认为对比尔斯顿作品的核心贡献。
Marie Neurath: Designing Bilston’s Housing Exhibition
Marie Neurath was a pioneer in information design who co-developed the graphic approach Isotype and co-founded the Isotype Institute. This article elaborates on Marie’s creation of an educational exhibition in 1946 in Bilston, UK, advocating for a slum clearance project in a working-class neighborhood of Bilston. For over ten months, Marie carefully designed twelve charts that would help viewers understand the importance of the project for health and happiness. Despite being one of Isotype’s most visionary schemes for public education, Marie’s original contribution is unclear, in part because a new town clerk changed the housing exhibition at the last minute, bringing in “attractions” such as an ant farm and related cartoons. This article draws on correspondence, sketches, and notes from The Otto and Marie Neurath Isotype Collection at the University of Reading to show that Marie’s work should be recognized as a central contribution in the Bilston work.
