A few examples have surfaced in design museums, yet curiously the design still awes with it’s organic simplicity and aura of futuristic utilitarianism.

  • Colani,Fashion and Classics
    Colani,fashion and classics In 1968, in cooperation with Kusch+Co, Luigi Colani designed `Colani collection` which was named after him.Luigi Colani is such an extraordinary person that he is always inspired with unique and unconventional ideas. He is a master of freeform shapes and capable of applying his design to shaping modern furniture. Colani collection was mainly made of soft foam, metal frames and double layer elastic fabric so that the shape can be maintained as expected. Kusch+Co was then the first company with soft foam technology in this industry. By using soft foam and metal frames, Kusch had succeeded in completing nearly impossible sculptural shapes of Colani collection. “The earth is round, all the heavenly bodies are round; they all move on round or elliptical orbits. We are even aroused by round forms in species propagation related eroticism. I am going to pursue Galileo’s philosophy: my world is also round.”—— Luigi Colani Luigi Colani Born in Berlin, Germany in 1928, Luigi Colani then graduated from the Sorbonne in Paris with a degree in Aerodynamics and Design. In 1968, in cooperation with Kusch+Co, Luigi Colani designed `Colani collection` which was named after him. He had also designed for many well-known manufacturers such as NASA, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Ferrari and Bio-City in Shanghai Chongming Island. He is the most prominent and innovative comtemporary designer and widely recognized as `Leonardo Da Vinci of the 21st Century‘ by the international design field. With a large number of unconventional and exaggerating designs, he is also regarded as `Messiah of the design‘.

    MÜNSTER /KASSEL/BERLIN Travel Tips & General Information 1 From June 10 to October 1, the city of Münster will hold Skulptur Projekte Münster for the fifth time. Held every ten years (1977, 1987, 1997, 2007), Skulptur Projekte Münster presents the works of international artists in a wide variety of spaces around the city. The curatorial team, presently made up of Kasper König, Britta Peters, and Marianne Wagner, has invited artists from all over the world to investigate the relationship between art, the public realm, and the urban environment, and to develop new, site-specific works. Past editions have seen the work of artists such as Donald Judd, Bruce Nauman, Claes Oldenberg, Daniel Buren, Jorge Pardo, and Jeff Koons, to name a few. Additionally, from June 10 to September 17, the city of Kassel will hold Documenta 14 (held every five years). Alongside Venice’s Biennale, Documenta is seen as the most important, regularly occurring exhibition for modern and contemporary art in the world. Artistic Director Adam Szymczyk has been building up a team of curators that include Pierre Bal-Blanc, the director of Contemporary Art Center (CAC) Brétigny; Hendrik Folkerts, curator of performance, film, and discursive programs at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam; Hila Peleg, the founder and artistic director of the Berlin Documentary Forum; Dieter Roelstraete, senior curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago; and, Monika Szewczyk, visual arts program curator at the Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts, University of Chicago, where she also lectures in the departments of Visual Arts and Art History.
