Walking into One Art Space<\/a> on Warren Street, Massimo Vignelli\u2019s 1964 Pirelli advertisement greeted me \u2014 you know the one, the red and pink duotone image of a joyful bike ride. It was a bright spot of color against a black-and-white gallery display featuring the names of influential Italian designers.<\/p>\n I was delighted to attend the launch event for \u201cMade in Italy NYC,\u201d an exclusive two-day event celebrating the rich heritage of post-war Italian graphic design and its enduring relationship with the United States. This two-day exhibition offered a unique opportunity to explore original pieces from significant Italian and American designers produced between the 1950s and 1980s. The exhibition drew from the collections of AIAP CDPG<\/a>, the Milan-based Graphic Design Documentation Center of the Italian Association of Visual Communication Design.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n
