The heart of the exhibition is the Main Road, which presents the cultural background to the respective eras of pop. The Sound Lounge invites you to listen and relax. Sixty songs from Marlene Dietrich to Pur complement the Main Road audio experience. In the Backstage area, a selection of posters and record and CD covers brings old memories vividly back to life.

Can fashion – a phenomenon that is subjected to constant renewal – even be sustainable? Natascha von Hirschhausen deals with this question in her work and explores the limits of the feasible. Only natural plastic-free materials are used in the production of her collections – their origin and manufacturing are tested and transparent along the whole value-added chain. A special cutting technique developed by the designer herself allows her to reduce the material waste to less than one percent. All garments are manufactured locally and per order – in this way long transportation routes and overproduction can be avoided. For her outstanding dedication to the principles of sustainability Natascha von Hirschhausen was honoured with the German Federal Ecodesign Award in 2017.

In the work of design collective Additive Addicted technologies of digital manufacturing and a millennia-old material – porcelain – meet and interact with one another. To accentuate the special characteristics and qualities of porcelain the design collective developed parametric and generative strategies that allowed to program and control the movements of a ceramic 3D printer. This way, objects with delicate, highly complex structures that resemble textiles were developed. From the symbiosis of technology and material arises a yet unseen repertoire of forms that could have not been realized with conventional ceramic techniques.

Sanghyeok Lee’s objects are intriguing and inviting to look at and use. They appear to be everyday objects – mirrors, tables, shelves and chairs. However, when taking a closer look and engaging in a dialogue with the objects, something new is revealed – something hidden behind the perfect workmanship, minimalist design and harmony between forms and function that only comes to light when interacting with and sensually experiencing the objects. South Korean designer Sanghyeok Lee exhibits five of his works, placed and presented in different spots in the museum.

Opening:

Talk and guided tour with the designer, participation with valid museum ticket for free.
