On the top of page 23, she seems to be suggesting that visual rhetoric has always been (will always be?) linked to cultural studies and "low" art. This is not to mention the her highly problematic definition of low art as advertizing. Between pages 27 and 28, she represetns visual rhetoric as more student-oriented, as the realm in which students are more literate than their instructors. On the bottom of page 29, suddenly visual rhetoric is equated with (Adbusters and Guerilla Girls) an aesthetic of speaking to power.</p> <p><a href="http://www.digitalparlor.org/sp07/blakesley7/node/331">read more</a></p> http://www.digitalparlor.org/sp07/blakesley7/node/331#comment What is visual rhetoric?
