Abstract

The Taller de Diseño Integrado (DI) was an art group that worked between 1968 and 1973. Their multidisciplinary training helped them to improve their view of art and its role in society. We owe them the design and implementation of Santiago’s emblematic urban art work “The Santa Lucía underpass”. The DI practice involved new ideas about art material and the multidisciplinary point that they held over art and desing. They prioritized collaborative art practice over individual art practice. Through analizing their key ideas of “integrated design” and “workshop”, we will review and try to understand their main ideas and proposals, from their own work and practices.
