Former Icograda President, Giancarlo Iliprandi, featured in a retrospective at the Scuola Politecnica di Design in Milan
"For a professional, commitment is a daily routine. These non-profitable works, which were commissioned directly, published with great difficulty or perhaps not published at all - sometimes pretentiously social or fancifully provocative - are what I call my disengagement." These are the words Giancarlo Iliprandi uses to introduce his exhibition, which opens in via Ventura Milano on 27 October 2005.
