We’re currently participating in a nice group show titled The Big Idea at the Scion Gallery in LA. We’re exhibiting this new large-scale print, alongside other peeps including So-Me, Mario Hugo, Emily Forgot and more. Curated by Monsieur L’Agent – On now, until July 16th.
We’re really busy at the moment, but I finally managed to drop by the Hussein Chalayan exhibition at the Design Museum for a quick poke about. It’s a really nice show overall and features a summary of his work from the past 10 years or so, including his film collaborations and actual samples from the collections. The exhibition graphics and guide are all designed by åbäke, so of course these are also quite special, and the guide in particular is a beautiful little chap.
The show is quite unusual as there are no captions to accompany the pieces, instead all the info is provided in the small, but extensive, 12×12cm black and white guide (shown above). I thought this was a nice touch as you appreciate the guide even more and it avoids the inevitable problem of nobs blocking the captions so you can’t read them!
The highlight of the show is definitely experiencing the laser dress in person (video above in case you can’t make it though!). A very, very beautiful piece of design.
Show continues until the 17th May.
I finally managed to pop in to the Alan Aldridge exhibition at the Design Museum today. There are some very tasty pieces on show, including a few gems that were new to me. Very interesting to see the early work shown alongside new projects currently in development, and the opportunity to see some of the animation projects in detail.
Certainly worth a visit if you’re a fan!
We are very excited to be exhibiting as part of this group show in Los Angeles. 4,500 square foot of gallery space + 15 international artists. Should be fun. Runs from 6th – 27th September. Click flyer above for more info.
