Design and designers in the history of culture. In memory of a colleague, scientist, teacher Vladimir Ruvimovich Aronov

Year: 2022
Type: article
Abstract: The authors share their memories of the outstanding art and design historian of the XIX–XXI centuries, teacher, scientist and organizer of humanitarian research in the field of design Vladimir Aronov (1941–2022). The article focuses on the specifics of the researcher's socio-cultural approach to design problems, personal author's participation in many events from the history of design, acquaintance with iconic figures of world design. V.R.Aronov had an author's view of the history of design based on familiarity with a huge range of sources, which included not only monographs of researchers, but also magazine and newspaper publications, archival documents, recordings of personal conversations with design theorists and practitioners from Russia, Europe, America, Asia. This is what allowed him to convincingly formulate the features of the author's concept of a particular designer-a practitioner or a theorist. References Vershinin G.V.
