About the exhibition

After Vienna and Budapest, the 20th jubilee Design Without Borders exhibition and event series will close with an exhibition in Bratislava, where visitors will be able to see a representative selection of works by designers from the V4 region and a total of almost 150 artists from 14 countries.

This time, the exhibition, organised around several thematic units, will focus on contemporary jewellery, sound objects, eco- and socio-conscious works, in addition to traditional design themes. In the spirit of all-arts, the exhibition will be enriched by contemporary and classical music concerts and a curatorial guided tour on 19-20 July.

The exhibition includes a significant retrospective selection, drawing attention to the broader concept of design, the diversity of design object creation, the work of internationally influential designers, as well as works by different generations, emerging artists and university students from different countries. There is a strong focus on eco- and socio-conscious projects, works on the borderline between fine art and design, sound objects and a representative selection of contemporary jewellery also awaits visitors.

The speciality of the exhibition is bringing the creations of defining international creators like Yrjö Kukkapuro of Finland, Alvaro Catalán de Ocón of Spain, Studio Dechem of Czechia, Oskar Zięta of Poland, and jewellery designers like Ted Noten of the Netherlands, Susanne Hammer of Austria, the award-winners of the Legnica Jewellery Festival SILVER and young emerging artists all under one roof.
