MAK DESIGN NITE: First Supper
7.10.2008, 9pm
On the occasion of the MAK DESIGN NITE on 7 October 2008, Berlin-based designer Jerszy Seymour invites the audience to First Supper - an extraordinary dinner. The “design situation” which Jerszy Seymour creates, critically withdraws from the notion of design as the commodification of everyday objects and life-style accessories: Instead of focusing on the production of a commodity – a designer-artifact – the center of attention will be the act of fabricating itself and the discussion of the occasion. First Supper is an experiment which, in the context of a culinary setting, relates material, technology, usage, consumerism, economics, religion and politics to the process of creating, in which these areas become manifest as design.
First Supper is an invitation to participate.
