(Agnieszka Bar BREAKTIME)

Gerade einmal 80 km liegen zwischen Berlin und der polnischen Grenze / viele Berliner und polnische Biographien sind eng miteinander verwoben / beiden liegt die Improvisation / zeitgenössisches Design aus Polen hat etwas Unpoliertes ("un-polished" war der Titel einer großartigen Designausstellung / Hildegard Knef sang von Berliner Sommersprossen / heute sind es eher Schlaglöcher // Polen ist Schwerpunkt der aktuellen Berlin Design Week und gleichzeitig war auf dem DMY noch nie so viel Berlin mit "Refugium" (Berlin als Design-Prinzip) und dem Design Award von Visit Berlin. Grund genug für uns, Künstler und Designer aus Polen und Berlin Seite an Seite auszustellen.

Man on the Wing, 2012

Edition No. 59 Roman Ondák Man on the Wing, 2012 Edition of 100 copies + 20 A.P., numbered and signed by the artist.

Its done. The new edition of the Deutsche Guggenheim is available from today. This time Biennale and documenta artist Roman Ondák conceived a stamp, related to his installation "don't walk outside this line". Have you ever looked out of the airplane window, wondering what this text on the airplane wing means or to whom it was written? Ondák shows a man, who seems to have the courage to try the step outside the limits. The image of the man, which will - perhaps - cross the line was exectued as steel engraving by one of the leading masters of this craft in Slovakia, Martin Cinvosky. What an extravagance! A technique today mainly used for really big editions, for industrial money and stamp production, used for a limited edition of 100 copies only! Further more the printing was executed by hand on a bookprinting machine. In fact to receive 100 precise and - almost - perfect copies, 500 prints have been made.

NOTHING TO DECLARE

Matt Keegan's limited edition for the Deutsche Guggenheim just in time ready for the opening of "Found in Translation" yesterday.

NOTHING TO DECLARE is a word sculpture, which has exactly the size of an USA exit sign and is lacquered traffic light green. The edition was manufactured in Berlin (lasercut steelplate, liquid coated) and is extremly limited: 20 copies only + 5 A.P. have been done for Berlin.

Funny enough - most of the copies had problems to pass German customs, coming back from New York, where Matt has signed his edition. Obviously German customs is not very self-ironic. NOTHING DECLARE or to pass borders free, without any declaration seems to remain an artist dream.

CANTICLE OF THE SUN

The Canticle of the Sun is not only the most known prayer by St. Francis, it is as well a poetical and very emotional text, which has inspired many people in many cultures.

The American calligraphist Brody Neuenschwander, who lives and works in Bruges today, has interpreted the text in a light and slightly dancing handwriting. The key words of this prayer, which underline the familiar relationship between mankind and nature, have been the material for a series of products, produced on behalf the exhibition "Franziksus - Licht aus Assisi" in Paderborn.

Concept by Jörg Klambt and Karen Olze, calligraphy by Brody Neuenschwander, layout byKaren Olze, produced by muse-store. Available online on www.kulturundhandel.de and at the exhibition store in Paderborn.

The canticle gave us the chance to find products related to each element. terra, the earth with flowers and fruits; aqua, the water; frate focu, luna, stelle, this is the fire, the moon and the stars and even frate vento became an object. A scarf, which protects from brother wind!

Licht aus Assisi

muse proudly announce to be commissioned by the Diözesanmuseum Paderborn (Prof. Dr. Stiegemann) to develope an exhibition store dedicated to the exhibition "Franziskus - Licht aus Assisi".

Focus of that exhibition is the pretend paradox between St. Francis' demand for poverty and the richness of the Franciscan culture and cult, which leads to a specific idea of simplicity.

Therefore we created products which likewise are simple and even rough. The bag below is made by Bags of Ethics and shows a phrase of the famous "Canticle of Creatures". More on that product range developed together with Karen Olze in a later blog.

But not only the products are simple. The complete store construction - designed by Alex Valder - is made of slats, roughly connected and painted with dispersion paint.

For the shelves we've used again 20mm cardboard panels, the rough edges uncovered. The lampshades are made of coffee filters. At the same time the rhythm follows the one of the windows facade of the Diözesanmuseum (Gottfried Böhm, 1968-75).

Related to the exhibition the assortment ranges from our product line "Canticle of Creatures" to products made in Franciscan monasteries, from devotional articles made in Assisi to a product line exclusively created around the imagery of Brody Neuenschwander. Neuenschwander is an American calligraphist, who lives in Bruges today, worked together with Peter Greenaway for Prospero's books before and made some fabulous installations for Paderborn. More on his "bird signs" in a following blog.

BROKEN - TWO DESIGNERS FROM POLAND

Within the context of the ungoing performance by Pawel Althamer at the Deutsche Guggenheim, muse_store proudly presents two fabulous designers from Poland.

Agnieszka Bar was born 1982. Her glass objects find the beauty in the broken mirror, in crashes, breaking lines and accidental deformation.

In the objects of Agnieszka Lasoata it is likewise a simple fragment, a found object, which shows (sometimes) the traces of its history, which is elevated to a piece of delicate luxury. Like in her Wreath Project, where she picks up a Polish tradition to create a wonderful light object out of simple fabric straps.

Viewing these works together with Pawel Althamers white sculptures made of some kind of plastic, figures composed of a visible rack, poorly covered by the white cheap material and nevertheless full of dignity, one might consider, what kind of cultural experience leads to the shared interest in grandeaur created by simple materials and hand work.

FLIPBOOKCINEMA. Flipbook exhibition with works by Luca Buvoli, Wiebke K. Fölsch, Volker Gerling, Sabine Klar and others. Only 4 days at unser. poetry of objects. Stubenrauchstr. 46, Berlin Friedenau. November 19 to 22.

HAARHAAR

(foto by Christian Pade / model Kirsten Eggers) Hair or the way to present it (or to cover it) is of course a cultural language. The exhibition "Renaissance Faces" in Berlin and specially Botticellis picture of Simonetta Vespucci has been the inspiration to develope the HAARHAAR project. Concept: Lucie Wahren and Jörg Klambt. Graphic Design: Lucie Waren and Christian Pade. Produced by digifabrix, Berlin.

Simonetta Vespucci can be called an it-girl of her time. Botticelli portrayed her twice and was obviously fascinated specially by her hair. In his paintings the image of her hairstyle is obviously more than a realistic image. The long, intertwined, free, even wild wisps of hair symbolize beauty, youth and naturalness.

The HAARHAAR scarf therefore covers the "real" hair and uncovers this statement of western culture. The HAARHAAR project goes on. More hairy fabric or textile haircuts will follow.

COLEURS

In a colorful and vital Europe we trust! Idea: Vincenz Warnke, Volker Albus, Jörg Klambt, Lucie Wahren; Design: Florian Haberstumpf u. Jule Witte. Production: muse

SAY CHEEEESE!

muse proudly announce to be commissioned to develope a new range of merchandise products for the Berlin TV Tower. With 1.200.000 visitors each year, the "Fernsehturm" is the most popular sight in Berlin.

The design for a bread board by Berlin based designer Karen Olze plays with the German expression for "morning show" = "Frühstücksfernsehen". And in fact you can have a very nice breakfast up in the sky of Berlin.

More TV Tower products will follow.

FACE STORE
