Traveling Landscape. Ai Weiwei, Beijing
(> 9/01/2008) - Berlin
AedesLand
The exhibition on Chinese artist, architect and urbanist Ai Weiwei is put on display at AedesLand after Ai Weiwei's campaign 'Fairytale'. Created for Aedes, his installation 'Traveling Landscape' plays ironically with the journey of the suitcases, which traveled with the 1001 Chinese visitors to Germany. Just like the accommodation and fittings for the documenta guests in Kassel, they had been designed especially by Ai Weiwei, each of them a unique specimen. By now, the suitcases have finished their global container journeys - Beijing-Kassel-Beijing-Berlin - just like most of the everyday objects that surround us today.

Architecture, People and Resources | Baumschlager & Eberle 2002-2007
(> 13/01/2008) - Munich
Pinakothek der Moderne
Since its establishment as a partnership in 1985, the architectural practice of Baumschlager & Eberle in Lochau / Vorarlberg has completed well over 300 construction projects and building studies, earning itself an international reputation. Recent representative works include large-scale projects such as the Vienna airport extension, the MOMA high-rises in Beijing, the WHO / UNAIDS building in Geneva and the 1,000-bed hospital in Kortrijk (Belgium). Key to the Baumschlager & Eberle philosophy is that architecture is a complex entity requiring the integration of many different elements, to which justice can only be done if a building meets all the demands made on it in terms of structural intelligence, ecology, economic efficiency and social acceptability. This philosophy is reflected in the division of the »Architecture, People and Resources« exhibition into three distinct parts.

Le Corbusier
(> 10/02/2008) - Weil am Rhein
Vitra Design Museum
The work of Le Corbusier remains highly significant and relevant in today's architectural discourse. Yet during the past two decades, no major museum show has addressed the many aspects that still make Le Corbusier's work such an important point of reference for contemporary architecture and urbanism. To fill this void, the Vitra Design Museum is now joining forces with the Netherlands Architecture Institute and the Royal Institute of British Architects in the production of an international retrospective.

Christopher Dresser: pionier van modern design
(> 13/01/2008) - Ghent
Design Museum
Christopher Dresser (1834-1904) born in Glasgow has been the first industrial designer. Trained to be a botanist, he used botany as a source of inspiration for his language of forms.
After a visit to Japan in 1876-1877, the brilliant Dresser created several objects that were clearly influenced by Oriental models. It is those objects, with their minimalist forms and with which he earned himself a name in later years that will be on display.
Dresser showed a keen interest in the industrial production process. Most of the time he worked with standardized elements. He made designs for metal, ceramics and glass. If it weren't for Dresser, modern design would be rather different today.

Jean Tinguely. Alles beweegt!

Kunsthal
A major retrospective of Jean Tinguely (1925-1991) for the first time in forty years. Tinguely is one of the icons of modern art and world renowned for his moving sculptures of rusty iron and waste material that work as machines but serve no useful purpose. Since the 1950s, his grinding, squeaking, spouting and banging oeuvre has created an indelible impression in the art world and particularly outside it. Tinguely's large, rattling machines and colourful objects are vital and cheerful, as well as being poetic and sometimes ironic. This is art that will surprise and bring a smile to everyone's face, especially children, simply because everything moves!
