Abstract
The beginning of the studies of some Genoese drawing teachers on the relationships between graphics - understood as ornament and decoration - and music, is dated back to the end of the Nineties, within an interdisciplinary project supported by Edoardo Benvenuto, principal of the then Faculty of Architecture, and Gaspare De Fiore, together with the Center for Ancient Music “Practica Musicae”, directed by Leopoldo d’Agostino, with the development of a series of reflections that have also benefited from the contribution of Universities and Study Centers from different countries.
The purpose of these studies has been mainly to compare different sensitivities in the approach to a common topic; in particular the themes of improvisation, decoration and ornament, in architecture and design, have been discussed, relationed to what happens in synchronic and syntopic way in music production.
The subject of ornamentation is particularly important for those who deal with “decoration” and the field of experimentation related to graphic design has been limited to the critical reading of the apparatus present in furniture, textiles and in clothing with reference to historically significant study cases at least national level.
