Abstract

*Process: Design Drawings from the Rijksmuseum 1500-1900* showcases the Rijksmuseum's extensive and never before presented collection of design drawings for the decorative arts. The design drawings are presented from a designer's perspective: rather than placing emphasis on the origin and attribution of the drawings, the function of drawings in design processes and makers' practices through the ages is the focus. Professor Reinier Baarsen, senior curator of decorative arts at the Rijksmuseum, developed this innovative categorization after years of research. His approach provides a unique insight into the context in which these drawings were created and into their inventors, makers and commissioners. The result is a sumptuously illustrated book with drawings of vases, chairs, clocks, stoves, sledges and carriages, from the first rough pencil sketches to beautifully elaborated and colourful presentations.

Abstract

On a daily basis, tens of thousands of food products fight for our attention in supermarkets. It's a miracle that we seem to effortlessly choose what we want from the overwhelming supply. Designers play a crucial role in this. They 'package' food and change it into products that appeal, inform and seduce us. The designer is the indispensable mediator between the producer and us, the consumer. As artisans of alienation, designers make up stories, create illusions and dream images. Food Is Fiction places these stories in the context of the rise of the food industry and contemplating the future of food. From early advertising for classic brands such as Van Houten and Van Nelle, to food pornography, astronaut food and gastrophysics. On the basis of historical and contemporary visual material, this book also shows how the designer's language conforms to the spirit of the times, uses stereotypes and prejudices, or anticipates social changes. Exhibition: Design Museum, Den Bosch, The Netherlands (30.06. - 28.10.2018).

Abstract

De moderne tijd is ondenkbaar zonder kaarten. Elk onderwerp met een ruimtelijke dimensie lijkt inmiddels wel op papier of scherm in kaart gebracht. Er zullen nog veel bruikbare topografische kaarten verschijnen, maar de vorm van dergelijke kaarten is op zijn grenzen gestoten. We staan al met één been in het tijdperk van ‘voorbij de kaart’ en juist dát maakt terugblikkend nieuwe inzichten mogelijk in het ordenend principe van moderne kaarten. Moderniteit in kaart is gebaseerd op de collectie Steegh-Teunissen, een van de grootste particuliere kaartverzamelingen in Nederland, met zo’n 18.300 losse kaarten en 2550 atlassen, kaartboeken en reisgidsen. De hoofdmoot van de verzameling beslaat de negentiende en twintigste eeuw. De voornaamste thema’s zijn watermanagement, stadsontwikkeling, etnische relaties en militaire conflicten. De focus is wereldwijd, met unieke kaarten die dikwijls niet in archieven en musea zijn terug te vinden. Zo’n 250 kaarten zijn te zien in de tentoonstelling in het Design Museum in Den Bosch. --Wbooks
