Curator Guided Tour: 100 BEST POSTERS

with Peter Klinger, Deputy Head, MAK Library and Works on Paper Collection

For the 21st time, the MAK turns its attention to the most innovative minds in graphic design. Making a clear statement as to their irreplaceable relevance, the exhibition 100 BEST POSTERS 25 highlights the top posters out of Germany, Austria, and Switzer-land. While digital media clamor for attention, these award-winning works show how design can be used to signal a stance.

Their bandwidth ranges from experimental self-commissioned work to highly efficient corporate designs. Moreover, the exhibition answers the question of how to be heard amid the visual noise of our time.

Exclusively for this exhibition, selected construction kits have been reproduced for visitors to play with. Students from the HFT Stuttgart have created building systems modeled after historical originals, replicating the valuable original building blocks of the Ingenius, Bâtiss, and Skyline kits on an enlarged scale. Furthermore, an immersive VR experience of an architectural model as well as bricks from the Minibrix, Tetek, and Dusyma systems, along with an East German kit, will be available for experimenting, playing, and building.

The DAM exhibition concept received generous support from the IKEA Foundation.
