citaat van hun eigen website:Weyers and Borms are known for their unusual approach to applied art and design. Quite early on, and based on their curiosity or entirely coincidentally, they mixed elements from the plastic arts with pure and thus sometimes rather dull craftsmanship. Their sense of adventure leads them to an artistic vernacular that is both archaic and contemporary where the story and/or concept plays an important role, but not necessarily so.They find it very hard to deal with an excessive focus on the consequences of things. Often, elements are taken from the exact sciences that have been 'forgotten'. For instance, formulas on how to make explosives are taken from old texts of the British scientist Roger Bacon and processed into ... sugared almond baskets or ashtrays.An abandoned and overgrown track leads to an interesting site or an abys... At the edge of the cliff, you have the choice between enjoying the view or jumping. In some cases, this philosophy results in works of art that have strayed from the path of applied art and which are more at home in the world of plastic arts.Despite the fact that Weyers and Borms have never embraced the strict separation between plastic and applied art, a distinction seems to ba desirable, not in the least to give the viewer a clearer image of the various facets of the creativity of both artists.A while ago they summed up their work in one sentence, "Trust us, we don't know what we're doing..."

The architect and designer Ron Arad has worked with the graphic designer Neville Brody to create this unusual overview of design. Arad's own individual approach to design is reflected in this selection which focuses on technological innovation and on fresh ways of perceiving and creating objects, from computer-generated repeat patterns for textiles to jewel-like hand-held remote controls. In a varied compilation, such established names as Ettore Sottsass, Nanna Ditzel, Kenneth Grange and Gaetano Pesce are included with younger talent. The move towards environmentalism and the emergence of a new conservativeness in design continue to be important themes. This year also sees designers and manufacturers moving towards a new, more human design language, particularly in the fields of products. Illustrations are accompanied by technical data, and a reference section includes biographies of the designers featured, and a comprehensive list of suppliers and their addresses and an update of design acquisitions at the major museums.
