Das sagt der/die Veranstalter:in:

In her new publication “The New Design Museum: Co-creating the Present, Prototyping the Future” (Park Books, 2025) Beatrice Leanza  addresses how contemporary institutions of culture engage the transformed––and continually transforming––nature of design in the 21st century while adapting to the social, environmental, and ethical demands of its planetary scope in both practical and discursive dimensions. 
By bringing together theories and voices from different geographical locations, the book integrates the author’s own essays, long-form colloquia with directors and chief programmers from established institutions, and case studies that encompass independent organizations, initiatives and platforms exploring an ever-expanding outlook on design as a field of research, practice and activism. 
Join us for a conversation with Beatrice Leanza and curator Carson Chan about the future of design and museums in their quest to remain relevant and impactful outlets of public engagement.
