Things, Spaces, Interactions

EVENT DESCRIPTION

Design and architecture from Asia and beyond

Design and architecture define the things we use, create the spaces we inhabit, and ultimately inform the way we see and live in the world. Things, Spaces, Interactions presents more than five hundred examples of furniture, architecture, graphic arts, and other design objects that have had a profound influence in Asia and across the globe over the last seventy years. Design moves across borders and is shaped by transnational exchange.

This exhibition reveals the larger forces at play in this region, including social and economic change in a global context, and shows how design and architecture give us a window onto questions that are deeply relevant to our lives today.

ABOUT THE ARTIST / ORGANISER

The M+ building in the West Kowloon Cultural District is one of the largest museums of modern and contemporary visual culture in the world. Located at the southernmost edge of Kowloon overlooking Victoria Harbour, it is among Hong Kong’s most iconic landmarks, both monumental in its architectural form and radically open in its position in the urban landscape.
