Anna Calvera

Design in the Relationship between Northern and Southern Countries

  • Anty Pansera

Abstract

To close this issue of AIS/Design. Storia e Ricerche is the tribute to Anna Calvera (1955 - 2018), the one who can be fully defined as a great protagonist of the design culture, a former member of the journal scientific committee. A tribute that is due, not only for her professional and research path but, above all, for the many contributions of reflection and mapping on the history of design, between local and global, and of the construction of what she herself had defined "intertwined stories of design".
