Designing Critical Design
The world of design has been witness to how the boundaries between art and experimental design are becoming ever more blurred. Z33 already focussed on this phenomenon in ‘Designing Critical Design’, in which designers introduced a critical element into their workThe exhibition ‘Design by Performance’ is a showcase for performative trends in contemporary design, which focuses not on the production of a finished product, but on the production process itself: objects whose realisation is a continuous project, affected or formed by either the environment, the specific situation in which they find themselves, or onlookers. As such, processes and performances constitute a crucial part of Design by Performance, thus lending the exhibition its unpredictable and spontaneous character, and converting what is otherwise a pure ‘exhibition space’ into a space for events, interventions and actions by designers, artists and the public.
