COME-IN: INTERIOR DESIGN AS A CONTEMPORARY ART MEDIUM
IN GERMANY

Tall Galleries, June 23 - Septermbr 15

"Come-in" investigates the connections between art and design in twenty-five artistic positions by means of individual objects, sculptures, installations and videos. The mobilia, objects, and interiors appear to possess an "obvious" identity as "furniture," "luminaries" or "interiors." On second look however, they are too uncomfortable, colorful and eccentric,
all too clearly geared to our perception or a situational communicative event.
Made possible by Goethe-Institut Manila, National Commission for Culture and the Arts, and Germany's Institute for Foreign Cultural Relations.
