Dear Robert, this has been a recurring theme on the list (and is still
alive)

Anna Calvera (ed), Editorial Gustavo Gili; 1 edition (April 2004) - ISBN:
978-8425215438
Also an excellent book: "De lo bello de las cosas. Materiales para una
estética del diseño" (*About the beauty of things. Materials for a
aesthetic of design*), Anna Calvera (ed), Editorial Gustavo Gili, 2007 -
ISBN 978-84-252-2141-5)
Another references in English:
Dagmar Rinker (2003): “Industrial Design is not an art” – Tomás Maldonado's
Contribution to the Creation of a New Professional Identity.

> Dear List
>
> I was intrigued to read recently a call back in 1988, from engineers, for
> 'art and design perspectives' on better understanding urban systems (White
> 1988: vi). It had me thinking about what this might mean.
>
>
> Hence, I'm searching to determine if there is a formal definition of 'art
> and design' as an adjoined term, and when 'art and design' emerged as a
> more substantive term in academia. It's not in any of my dictionaries.
>
> It's often used in discussions (often on this list) about formal UK
> education dating back to 1835, and the formation of Government Schools of
> Design. But it does not seem to really take hold until the 1960s, when in
> the UK it became possible to study for a three-year Diploma in Art and
> Design, coinciding with changes in name from Schools/Colleges of Art to
> Colleges of Art and Design (e.g. in Nottingham).
>
> Might anyone be aware of if and how the adjoined term 'art and design' has
> been used earlier, in or outside the UK, to represent a formal period of
> study.
