Query on Bruno Munari

Did you take VES 130 or VES 150 during spring term 1967?

Professor Jeffrey Schnapp is researching the two courses that the great Italian designer Bruno Munari taught in Visual Studies during the spring term of 1967: VS 130, “Introduction to Visual Design” (36 enrolled), and VS 150, “Vision and Value: Advanced Explorations in Visual Communication” (19 enrolled). The latter course was inherited from György Kepes. Schnapp hopes to hear from anyone who took these courses and/or has memories about them, at jeffrey@metalab.harvard.edu.
