Until August 27th Galerie dieschönestadt in Halle is presenting an exhibition of works by Burg Giebichenstein students/graduates.
Featuring works from Jan Bernstein, Caspar Huckfeldt, Sebastian Müllauer, Hiroko Oda, David Oelschlägel, Stephan Schulz and Katharina Schwarze, "Addicited to Love" is a delightful mix of what product design is and can be.
Regardless if a multi-plug that you want to show the world, a shelving system that you can take with you when you leave a room, a lounge chair that you need to stuff yourself or an "Ulmer Stool" made from cereals and which if left outdoors will - honestly - be eaten by birds.....
..... Good product design isn't just a minimalistic dining chair - and Addicted to Love shows that.
Which makes it very easy to recommend.
And a bit off-topic, but...
As we noted in our post on the annual exhibition at Burg Giebichenstein, we were a bit disappointed that certain projects we liked weren't on show.
We now know a little bit more.
Our heads are still shaking in disbelief......
Addicted to Love at Galerie dieschönestadt, Am Steintor 19, Halle is on display until 27.08 and can be viewed Wednesday & Saturday von 2 bis 6 pm, and on Thursday from 6 - 10 pm. Further details can be found at http://dieschoenestadt.de/
