The Dimensions of the Plane – Communication Design in Germany
Sunday, March 14th, 2010.
2 p.m.
to 8 p.m.
Seagull Arts & Media Resource Centre,
36C, S P Mukherjee Road,
Bhowanipore
Developing an interesting and worthwhile exhibition on the subject of contemporary communication design in Germany has to be based on a single premise, which is to show the full strength and scope of two-dimensional communication design services. This display is ‘contemporary’ in that it features works which represent the current state of communication design at the beginning of the 21st century. The distinction ‘in Germany’ refers on the one hand to the fact that in making their selection, the organisers of this exhibition – the Goethe-Institut and the German Design Council – concentrated on German designers and agencies and those who are based in Germany. The impact of international exchange has always been great; thus for example American, Japanese and Swiss influences can be felt ‘in Germany’ and vice versa, international communication design has also been decisively influenced by practitioners from and in this country.
