EMERGENC(E)(Y)
27.04.2012 > 03.06.2012
CARRÉROTONDES

Emergenc(e)(y) is an exhibit conceived for Design City 2012 and produced by the CarréRotondes. Emergence, the first part of the exhibit, gives the floor to emerging designers from various European schools such as  l’ECAL (Lausanne) The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts School of Architecture (Copenhagen) and La Cambre (Brussels), while the Emergency part gathers Luxembourgeois designers and creatives around the theme of urgency. This vast subject covers social and environmental emergencies and analyses problems of (over) consumption and production, raising questions about our lifestyles. Emergency offers non-linear works that translate these different definitions, adding the physical notion of energency intervention, i.e. speed. The designers also playfully and poetically interpret the subject by modifying objects associated with medical emergencies, thus arriving at twenty very different projects/concepts. It is this committed vision of design that the exhibit hopes to reveal.
