Visualizzare dati 1505–2017. Antologia di cultura grafica

At Circolo del Design, we present Visualizzare dati 1505–2017, the volume in the Antologia di cultura grafica series published by Lazy Dog, together with Silvia Sfligiotti, one of the series' editors, and lecturer and art director Roberto Maria Clemente. An event to explore the history of data visualization and reflect on how graphic choices shape the way we read and understand information. From the first graphic representations of physical qualities in the Middle Ages to the digital tools of the third millennium, the volume gathers texts by authors who helped define the visual language of statistics and information. From Nicole d'Oresme to William Playfair, from John Snow to Otto Neurath and Jacques Bertin: a journey across centuries and disciplines to discover how numbers, maps and charts become tools of knowledge.
