27 Sept – 11 Nov
The Biennial of Design (known also by its Slovene acronym BIO) is one of the few major international design exhibitions that has a tradition of more than forty-eight years of presenting contemporary trends in international design. From the first biennial in 1964 to today, BIO has presented twenty-two exhibitions surveying the state of international design.
BIO22 exhibition opening, Museum of Architecture and Design
The main exhibition of 23rd Biennial of Design has been conceived by the renowned curators Margo Konings and Margriet Vollenberg (Organisation in Design). The selection of works from 27 countries shows how modern technologies, digitalisation and globalisation, as well as nature and its resources influence designers and their creative work. However, the exhibition does not only expose the new and up-to-date ideas of contemporary design production, but also opens up a daring and critical cross section of everything that contemporary design reflects and describes in this very moment.
Design Relations
The theme of BIO23 is Design Relations. The Museum for Architecture and Design received 437 submissions from a record 38 countries
The BIO 23 exhibition display was designed by the well-known Dutch designer Joost van Bleiswijk.
