This time the young designers are ready to discuss design quality. What are the characteristics that give an object “quality design” status”? Durability, accessibility, functions, evironmental impact, innovation, the capacity to arouse an emotional response? Each designer confronts his or her design values, to give a personal definition of quality.

How to eat anything and not gain weight? How much can I eat the red meat? And with the fruits and vegetables not in season, how to behave?, These are just some of the questions that will answer this exhibition, an interactive and fun, with the testimonial, Marco Bianchi, the scientist-chef, and director of the program  “Tesoro salviamo i ragazzi”.”

Inaugurated on 18 October, the exhibition will remain open until June 24, 2012.

Giuffrida Bragadin has chosen one symbol for any client, from lighting and  living area to summer holidays. Off course, in background with all information abut theirs new products which we will see on the next Furniture Fair in Milan.

It was fantastic to see something new and unusual, it’s enough the simple ingredients and an excellent idea. The spring has come and this event in  green and yellow shades confirmed all its beauty.

The Abramovic Method was born from the artist’s reflections on three major performances from the last decade: The House With the Ocean View (2002), Seven Easy Pieces (2005) and The Artist is Present (2010).  These performances left a deep imprint on Abramovic’s perception of her work in relation to the public.

“The performance has no meaning without the public because, as Duchamp said, it is the public that completes the work of art. In the case of performance, I would say that public and performer are not only complementary but almost inseparable.”, explains Abramovic.

These works, which combine furniture with embedded minerals, allow for the public to interact with them though standing, sitting or lying down on the sculptures.  Through this pathway, people are offered the chance to expand their senses, to observe, and to learn to listen, both to others and to themselves.

In order to emphasize the dichotomies of observer and observed, actor and spectator, Marina Abramovic has install a series of telescopes within the exhibition, by AURIGA, for visitors to look at the macro and micro point of views of those who decide to tackle the interactive installations.

The Abramovic Method will be on view at the PAC from March 21 through June 10, 2012.
