Action of the moment | Call for entries - RECIPROCITY, the International Design Biennial in LiègeThe International Design Biennial in Liège will take place from 5th to 28th October 2012. Designers are invited to participate to a call for entries for the "MEMORABILIA - designing souvenirs" exhibition, a call for the evocative power of the objects which have the ability to stimulate our memory. Developed on the initiative of the Province of Liège and of the “Office provincial des Métiers d'Art de Liège” (OPMA), RECIPROCITY is the new name of the International Design Biennial in Liège which will take place from 5th to 28th October 2012. “Design as an agent for innovation and for social and civic cohesion is the red thread of RECIPROCITY”, The detailed programme of exhibitions, lectures and meetings will be published in the course of 2012. MEMORABILIA - designing souvenirs wants to be a call for the evocative power of the objects which have the ability to stimulate our memory. The memory creates a time reciprocity, between past, present and future, and a space reciprocity, between here and elsewhere. The aim of this call and of the exhibition MEMORABILIA - designing souvenirs is to gather a selection of objects which contain representative and recognizable traces of the history of each designer, of his/her place of birth or living, of his/her ethnic group, of his/her cultural background, in order to offer the public a mosaic of little hints of souvenirs, of ways to the memories. Deadline for the applications: 15th March 2012. Further information on : www.designliege.be Publication: 19/10/2011 | Find designer |
