Shifting Objects – Shifting Values
Over the course of a year, interdisciplinary teams have collaborated to create prototypes combining traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design. This cross-border exchange fosters collaboration, experimentation and fresh perspectives on design, production and the values behind the objects we create.
The exhibition is open until 11 October 2026 at the Museum Angewandte Kunst.
What happens when designers and craftspeople combine their diverse expertise and perspectives? Come and discover the results!
