ISIA U

ISIA Urbino is a graphic design and visual communication school. It is a school with a strong identity which be summarised as workshop based with local area and regional bonds and focused on design’s political dimen-sions understood as a form of attention to its socio-economic implications. The institute’s identity is bound up with Italy’s history, with the healthy and productive Italy whose roots lie in the post Second World War period. ISIA is a place in which to learn social commitment and cultural design practices. The institute was set up in 1962 as a CSAG-Corso Superiore per Arte Grafica (Higher Education in Graphic Art Programme). It was Albe Steiner, invited by the Scuola del Libro's then principal, who shaped the programme’s struc-ture in a lively intellectual climate in which Carlo Bo, Rector of Urbino University, philosopher Livio Schirollo and architect Giancarlo De Carlo also took part. Steiner saw designers as intellectuals for whom both cultural and technical elements were equally essential and indissolubly linked.
