The Conversation Show: Dual Design at Holon Design Museum
The Design Museum Holon presents The Conversation Show, an exhibition curated by Maria Cristina Didero exploring collaborative design by five international duos: BCXSY, mischer’traxler, Reddish, Snarkitecture, and Zaven. Each pair created a new work from the same brief, resulting in diverse installations. mischer’traxler’s Coalesque is an interactive pendulum that changes color based on visitor proximity. Reddish’s Balancing Act is a kinetic sculpture from found objects. Zaven’s Dune features layered blown-glass lamps with neon. BCXSY’s Reciprocal Syntax is an immersive installation with a moving swing generating projections. Snarkitecture (the only trio) collaborated with Gufram on a mirrored path. Five-minute videos by Francesca Molteni and Muse Factory of Projects show the designers’ daily collaboration. The exhibition runs through October 26, 2019.
