La Ricerca Paziente: Corso Superiore di Disegno Industriale di Venezia (WIth an Inscription to Lella Vignelli)
An uncommon publication documenting the experimental approach to industrial design education at Venice's Corso Superiore di Disegno Industriale, examining the relationship between design methodology, research, and professional practice. 8.5 × 9.75 inches, printed French-fold wrappers, 80 pages, black-and-white illustrations throughout. Text in Italian. Collectively edited by Marco Albini, Giulio Cittato, Giampaolo Palatini, Antonio Piva, and ZItalo Zannier, with design by Cittato.
Presentation copy from the estate and working library of Massimo and Lella Vignelli, inscribed by Antonio Piva to Lella: “A Lella con amore! Antonio.” A particularly pertinent association, given Massimo Vignelli's involvement in design education in Venice and the Vignellis' place within the international Italian design community. An appealing contemporary designer-to-designer presentation copy of a scarce publication in the history of Italian industrial design. Front hinge weakened. Toning to title page. Light bumping and rubbing to dust jacket.
