NYC x Design x Souvenir

On Exhibit on Level 1

nycxdesign

    Since the beginning of modernism, souvenirs have been excluded from designers’ discourse, even though such figures as Charles and Ray Eames collected and displayed hundreds of souvenir objects in their own home. 

In the digital world of the 21st Century, there is a renewed interest in physical objects that can keep memories and retain emotions. New technologies and materials now allow for customizable and limited-edition objects that reflect on social, political, and cultural events of every passing year. This special exhibition of the new souvenirs will be presented to an assembly of design professionals, manufacturers, and international press — a visual manifestation and a celebration of design that is all around us.

Open to the public from Thursday, May 16th to Thursday, May 23rd. Learn more about NYCxDesign's Festival here
