EMLÉKEZZÜNK SZERETTEINKRE

„A szándék, vagyis a szellemiség – amely a mű lényege – eltér a szokványos síremlékekétől. Az elmúlás, az örök gondolata giccsmentesén tükröződik vissza a bemélyített felületről. Az anyag szépsége, az erő és a szilárdság az, amely magába fogadja a vizet, az ég tükörképét, a faleveleket és az úszó gyertyalángot. ”  Magyar Formatervezési Tanács

REAL-WORLD LABORATORY – Central European Design

by Magda Kochanowska, curator

Experimental design and industrial production – the two radically different faces of design presented at the “Real‑World Laboratory” exhibition – two designer attitudes that complement, support and enrich one another. Conceptual design, which is an intellectual field of experimentation, a source of new ideas; and industrial production, which economically justifies the designer’s work, have here been brought into dialogue.

See you in Saint-Étienne!
