Abstract

Conflict vormt voor heel wat ontwerpers een uitgangspunt om na te denken over onze maatschappij, om inhoud en betekenis te verlenen aan het designproces en om te komen tot duurzame en economisch rendabele ontwerpen. De 7de Triënnale voor Vormgeving, onder artistieke leiding van Kurt Vanbelleghem, biedt met Conflict & Design een onderzoek naar de maatschappelijke relevantie van ontwerpen: wat is de rol en de verantwoordelijkheid van design binnen onze samenleving, en wat is de impact ervan? Het boek presenteert concepten, projecten, objecten, processen en nieuwe ontwikkelingen in de hedendaagse designsector, zoals user-centred design, social design, participation design, proces design, sustainable design, ethical design enz. om een antwoord te bieden op deze vragen.

Abstract

Within a varied contemporary panorama, the exhibition displays a selection of 'design events' of different kinds and of different scales, organised into eight possible actions; eight metamorphoses capable of transforming materials or components into 'artefacts', into active elements of our daily lives and culture.The four categories formulated a hundred and fifty years ago by Gottfried Semper, and doubled in number to bring them up to date with contemporary conditions, are used as a grid to organise the complex structure of the artificial environment; and as the instrument for a possible revision of the axioms and methods of 'modern design', in its constant attempt to adapt them to the problems and aspirations of a complex world.Sempering looks at architecture, landscapes and objects of the last decade crossing the established boundaries of every possible system of the arts, of every division in skills and sectors. Actions such as stacking heavy blocks, connecting light structures, moulding soft materials, engraving fire casings, folding tin sheets, weaving threads, arranging tiles or blowing air can be seen as basic actions capable of inventing unexpected forms by the use of new technologies, but also as the testing of well-established 'customs' of formal traditions in their response to new conditions.
