In Hochschule für Gestaltung, HfG Ulm (School of Design), only 15% of the students were women, a much lower percentage than that in Bauhaus. In Argentina, as the twentieth century progressed, political phenomena that changed history occurred. The rise of Colonel Perón from the Ministry of Labor to the Presidency during 1945 transformed the power of industrial workers, and the figure of his second wife, Eva Duarte, gave way to the most important changes for the role of women in Argentine daily life.
The Industrial Design career at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the National University of La Plata -since its creation in 1963 and until 1986- had mostly male students. Very few women registered in it. But we rescue four examples of women who knew how to follow a historical path standing out with solvency and character. The incorporation of women to the industrial design field was also constantly hampered by social prejudices and mistrust feelings which have been successfully and fundamentally overcome by their professionalism.
