design real curated by konstantin grcic serpentine gallery, london november 26th, 2009 to february 7th, 2010
design real will be the serpentine gallery‘s first exhibition devoted to contemporary design. curated by konstantin grcic, the focus of the exhibition is on ‘real’ items – products which are currently in production, that have a practical function in everyday life and are available to a mass audience. a range of objects by international designers and manufacturers, from furniture and household products to technical and industrial innovations will be presented. design real will also feature a research space specially designed by grcic, where visitors will be able to investigate the origins and applications of the products on view. the exhibition will provide new perspectives from which to look at the material world around us and to encourage new insights into design.
