Antibodies

Vitra Design Museum, Weil am Rhein

May 16, 2009 - February 28, 2010

The Brazilians Fernando and Humberto Campana are the most significant designers in present-day Latin America. In addition to designs for international manufacturers of furniture, lighting and home accessories, the majority of creations coming out of their Sao Paulo studio consist of custom-made one-off objects for the home characterized by recycling of found materials, idiosyncratic combinations and a surrealistic impression. The retrospective on the 20-year collaboration between the two brothers emphasizes the artistic working method and explains how the works take shape – from the first sculptures up to the interdisciplinary works of today – based on prototypes, experiments and one-off pieces.


Global Street Food
A project by Mike Meiré

June 11 - July 12, 2009
Buckminster-Fuller-Dome, Vitra Campus

Accompanying the exhibition “Antibodies. The Works of Fernando & Humberto Campana 1989–2009”, the Vitra Design Museum is showing the current project created by Mike Meiré for the Dornbracht Edges series. “Global Street Food” is dedicated to the fascination with improvised kitchens in public places. Urban fast food stations navigating the contrast between pragmatic dilettantism and complexity in the smallest of spaces. Dornbracht presents a variety of street food kitchens from different areas of the world. An exhibition exploring the sculptural quality of authentic objects and their cultural identity.

Please note: The exhibition may only be viewed as part of a guided tour. During the architectural guided tours daily at 11 am, 1 pm and 3 pm. Special exhibition tour daily at 3 pm.
