Book Synopsis

Since time immemorial the exchange of cultures has had an impact on art, crafts and design. When people travel and migrate their objects travel with them and subsequently adapt to new settings and contexts. The catalog showcases jewelry, fashion, textiles, ceramic as well as graphic and industrial design by contemporary young designers and artists. The latter often hail from other countries and have backgrounds that may even be trans-cultural. The catalog presents global networks and interpretations of techniques and objects as well as their developments and messages that have altered thanks to mobility. The focus placed on the present and the future shows that in an age of cultural pluralism and heterogeneity art and design are not feasible without transcultural encounters.
