Text author: Миља Стијовић

This paper covers every kind of visual presentation of jazz, from advertising posters and newspaper advertisments, to neon signs, photos, album covers art and film. The performers, their instruments, popular bands, jazz clubs shown in jazz ambient were themes of visual presentation. If we look for a form of the greatest influence to the expansion of jazz, it would certainly be photography, and to this day it remains the most important genre visual representation.
