Upcoming exhibition hosted by the Design Museum Den Bosch
TRANS EUROPE DESIGN EXPRESS
FEBRUARY 22ND – MAY 25TH
From 22 February to 25 May, Domaine de Boisbuchet takes part in the exhibition “Trans Europe Design Express – a journey through five design collections”, hosted by the Design Museum Den Bosch in the Netherlands. Alongside Boisbuchet, the Triennale di Milano, the MUDAC from Switzerland, the Designmuseum Danmark, and the Brussels Design Museum are each contributing 25 representative works from their collections. Combined with a panel discussion at the opening and the publication of a joint statement, the project serves to initiate a European dialogue on socially relevant tasks of mediating design today.
This exhibition offers a thrilling tour of five major European design collections. The choices vary widely, reflecting the history of these high-profile institutions and showing how design collections have been used for all sorts of reasons: from providing inspiration for local craftspeople to promoting a national innovation agenda. Trans Europe Design Express is presented as a way of thinking about the design museum of the future, in anticipation of the new building that will house Design Museum Den Bosch a few years from now.
