The Disobedience of Design: GUI Bonsiepe
No Customer Reviews
Gui Bonsiepe, a key figure in European and Latin and South American design culture, is little known in English-language design literature. The present cultural moment, with its emphatic interest in diversity and inclusion, brings a new relevance to Bonsiepe's focus on "design in the periphery." Presenting an extensive selection of Bonsiepe's papers, some published for the first time in English, The Disobedience of Design offers a helpful entry point to Bonsiepe's work and abiding concerns. Chronologically, it charts a cultural bridge between generations, from design discourse of the Ulm School of Design in Germany in the 1960s to contemporary issues of the early 21st century. Even more crucially, it provides valuable insights on the contested relationships between design praxis, design theory, and design research. The book includes critical reflections on Bonsiepe's work by Zoy Anastassakis, Constantin Boym, Frederico Duarte, Hugh Dubberly, Ethel Leon, Marcos Martins, Eden Medina and the editor, Lara Penin.
