(Translation) 'Drawing and design. Italian patents and creativity. Exhibition catalog (Milan, 27 November 2011-29 January 2012)'.
(Summary) 'The volume presents in a new light the value of Italian creativity applied to industrial production, and the importance of correct protection of industrial property in maintaining the competitiveness of the country system in international markets. Also making use of the support of the Italian Patent and Trademark Office, the Central State Archive and the Department of Culture, Expo, Fashion and Design of the Municipality of Milan, the catalog presents hundreds of patents, designs, trademarks, which testify to the evolution and expansion of Italian creativity over the last hundred years.
It will therefore be the patent documents that accompany the reader along this journey, during which it will also be possible to see the products that took shape from the creators' ideas and the ways in which they were presented on the market. The journey starts from the beginning of the 20th century and reaches the present day, winding through the most important product sectors: furniture, fashion, agri-food and transport.'
