"Design-art" is a commercial phenomenon, not a cultural one
"often uncomfortable chairs don't deserve to be aggrandized by the intellectual
trappings of art"
"there are deeper, more complex areas of design than "design-art"; and that
all
of the hullabaloo about it distorts public perceptions of design, and
distracts
attention from its overriding mission of building a better world,
not
ditzier chairs."
And I like only some of the products of some of the Designers of the Future prize 2008, but I am also convinced that all that attention in the end will bring to the world some really good achievements.
"Cowbench is so disturbing. i think its good to use anatomy of an animal
(sea
lion-like or a headless dog) as a metaphor for design but this one
becomes too
literal to the point that it becomes weird. i would imagine that
it would feel
like sitting on a dead animal ? so bothering"I like the experiments of Max Lamb. It appears that Brad
Pitt also like s his bronze poly chair’ (above)
A positive comment from Kenny Schachter in Frame of mind - the visual arts blog:"the quality of the design on offer is better than it has ever been and the strong crowds are full of famous names."
