Poetry Happens

Art, poetry and design mix in an exhibition curated by Werner Aisslinger, Tim Brauns and Fabien Dumas.

"Design fluctuates between pure culture and the profession that considers everyone's needs", explain the curators of the exhibition Poetry Happens Werner Aisslinger, Tim Brauns (e27) and Fabien Dumas.

They have brought together a number of prototypes, projects and objects that, in some way, reflect the personality of who created them and their own poetic vision to better highlight the poetic and creative side of design. From the act of making to collage, prototyping, creating spaces and sustainability: all is poetry. Because as Bukowski used to say "Poetry is what happens when nothing else can." ES

Designers: Studio Aisslinger, Studio Makkink & Bey, Mark Braun, Fabien Dumas, e27, ett la benn, Formfjord, Harald Gottschling, Mathias Hahn, apparatu/mashallah, Clemens Tissi, Marre Moerel, Jerszy Seymour, Maria Volokhova e Chinabrenner.
