In spring 2021, after the passing of Lara-Vinca Masini, her collection of more than 200,000 interdisciplinary materials was transferred to the CID/Arti Visive, to be preserved and made accessible as part of the Centro Pecci’s museum collections.
Organized thematically, the archive-library has retained the order established by Lara-Vinca Masini. It includes materials on more than 8,000 artists, 2,000 exhibitions, and 700 architects. The collection holds publications on art, design, architecture, and applied arts, including exhibitions and publications by Masini herself, documented in over 350 volumes. It also preserves posters, correspondence, photographs, audiovisual materials, and other documents.
