Playground Fence by Tejo Remy
“Playground Fence”, designed by Tejo Remy, is a playful re-interpretation of playground fences.
A fence could be so much more than simply a separation or delineation of space. This gorgeous project, Playground Fence, explores a fence that can be part of the playground.
“Second Lives” at the Museum of Arts and Design
“Second Lives: Remixing the Ordinary”, where over 50 artists and designers “transform the ordinary into extraordinary works of art.”
As the title of the show explains, ordinary items like used record covers, plastic spoons & forks and phone books are given another life by these extremely creative artists. There are: a big pyramid created with 9,273 plastic spoons & 3,091 rubber bands, a gorgeous chandelier made with hypodermic needles, and exotic jewellery made with safety pins, steel handgun triggers and wooden rulers.
The exhibition includes works by well known designers, Ingo Maurer, Tejo Remy, and the Campana Brothers as well as internationally acclaimed artists, such as Tara Donovan, Xu Bing, El Anatsui, and Do Ho Suh.
