The exhibition puts a spotlight on the dawn of industrial design in the GDR and in particular on the work of the Dutch architect and Bauhaus member Mart Stam for a consistent modernisation of the product world and the institutional promotion of a new industrial culture. The exhibition will illustrate the cultural and political conflicts and the coexistence of modern and less modern design trends. The cooperation project is supported by the Hauptstadtkulturfonds.
