Hasta La Ideas

Design-minded New Yorkers, or those planning to visit Gotham this spring, are in for a treat. The students and staff of D-Crit, the Design Criticism MFA program at the School of Visual Arts, have assembled an outstanding line-up of speakers for the latest installment of their scintillating Tuesday night lecture series. This spring at D-Crit HQ, students will host and introduce speakers including branding champ Brian Collins (whose tête-à-tête with Debbie Millman is one of our all-time favorite episodes of Design Matters), filmmaker Gary Hustwit, and Art Institute of Chicago design curator Zoë Ryan.
