A 5-day workshop at the Convento da Arrábida. It will serve
as a forum for theoretical discussion of a specialist nature as
part of the programme for experimentadesign2001 and will bring
together major thinkers and artists from Portugal, the United
States, Switzerland, France, England, Brazil, Israel and Italy.
The central aim is to hold an in-depth debate on changes currently
taking place, with a shared starting point: thought as design.
Like the biennale itself, the workshop is designed to cut across
disciplinary and cultural borders, bringing highly diverse disciplines
and thinkers face to face with each other.
René Berger will be present at the workshop, chairing the
debates and presenting the final summary.

The Collectors House represents experimentas
response to a suggestion from the organizers of Intercasa, the
Lisbon interior design trade fair running concurrently with this
years biennale. In order to establish a point of contact
between the two events, Experimenta is presenting an experimental
house, designed by the architect Luís Tavares Pereira,
and decorated by pieces chosen by two curators, Miguel Wandschneider
(visual arts), who has opted for works which merge with the domestic
environment, and Filipe Alarcão (design), who has combined
new prototypes with standard design items chosen from the trade
fair itself. The aim is to create an environment which can surprise
visitors from different personal and professional backgrounds,
both stimulating the imagination and subverting the culture of
materialism.
