'MASS OF TIME' AT RADO, CURATED BY EDELKOORT - BASELWORLD 2016

RADO, Graf & Schelble Art Gallery - Basel, Switzerland

 

Come admire lightness-inspired design objects and some of Rado's latest standout timepieces at the Rado Gallery in Basel "Designing Lightness" curated by Lidewij Edelkoort for Rado.

The contemporary design scene is on a quest for lightness. From the streamlining of ceramics to the use of transparencies or the injection of air, objects are set afloat and embedded with an ethereal energy that corresponds to our desire for a lighter existence. Material is the message and mindfulness is the movement.

Rado has invited world‐renowned trend forecaster Lidewij Edelkoort to curate a design exhibition that illustrates this tendency. By bringing together innovative works by international designers, Edelkoort and her team will show how a “weightless” socio‐cultural philosophy is being previewed in design today.

Open from March 17 – 21, 2016, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
