IDENTITY Pedro Sadio & Fernando Piçarra
One of the crucial questions pertaining to events dedicated to design lies in the way in which they communicate and define their identity and how they relate to the urban context and local culture of the area in which they take place. The last 15 years have witnessed a proliferation of new events within this area, all of which have been linked to cities and/or countries and which are to some degree in direct global competition. EXD has initiated a process of critical reflection on this phenomenon, leading to the presentation of this work-in-progress exhibition that will open at EXD’13 and end within the scope of EXD’14 São Paulo. The exhibition will reflect on the processes of various events around the globe and bring directors and curators, the main protagonists responsible for their development, to Lisbon.
