Guided Tour

Switzerland + Austria = Design - tour with the curators

designaustria

4.10.2014, 8.30pm

designaustria shows the best from Switzerland – ranging over fashion, photo­graphy, industrial design and more. Curators Patrizia Crivelli and Michel Hueter present a multidisciplinary selection from the two leading Swiss design competitions: the Swiss Design Prize, sponsored by the Confederation, and the Design Preis Schweiz, a private initiative. While the former places the focus on recognising creative talents and quality, the second concentrates on the product in the environment of the market economy – an approach which includes both of them in relevance.

This guided tour takes place as part of the ORF Lange Nacht der Museen.
