.....a white cardboard box with a red stamp on it ''home–less is more''. The
content: ''Charity / Nächstenliebe'' placemats in italien, french, english or german
language, a soup plate ''Dirty / Schmutzig'', the cutlery ''Twisty / Verbogen'', a
glass ''Can / Konservendose'' and the napkin ''Stain / Fleckig''. At first sight it
looks like some homeless person has picked it up out of the garbage.
But the italian concept- and photoartist Daniele Pario Perra, born 1969, made each
piece of the set new and on the placemats as basis from which one eats the artist
printed original words of the homeless peoples cardboards. The proceeds of the
selling is for the homeless organisation PIAZZA GRANDE in Bologna to finance
placemat prints for the direct selling on the streets.
The ''home–less is more'' project by Daniele Pario Perra is a direct link to the
fluxus art movement of the sixties. Like George Maciunas at that time Daniele Pario
Perra intention is to create cross-over and intemedial art. His art works and
happenings are political statements and social critics which are open questions to
the bourgois culture.
To get in touch with Fluxus did have a deep impact on the work of artists like
Joseph Beuys, Yoko Ono or Dieter Roth. Until today Fluxus is a reaction on fugitive
experiences and an examination of perception patterns with a special sense of
humour. Daniele Pario Perra´s art deals with this poetics of everyday life. His
interest is the social conventions which regulate our life, the common sense of
beauty and morality. The meanwhile famous photographic series ''everyday sublime''
and ''economic border'' will also be shown in the exibition.

like to keep out of your pockest or off the table. Clothing adds something to the
body without reducing its original quality. Dressing transfers this principle to
furniture in order to add a new quality to it without challenging its original
value. A collection of clothes for chairs has come into existence that supports
their usage and even extends it.
dressing by Veronika Becker, Heike Scheller und Judith Seng did meet during their
design studies at the UdK / University of Arts in Berlin. The clothing collection
for chairs was presented first time at the designmai 04 Berlin and ''Big Socks'' was
choosen for the MOMA exhibition ''7x7 – designers from New york and Berlin'' last
year in Berlin.
