Fear and Love: Reactions to a Complex World is the ambitious opening exhibition at the new Design Museum. It consists of a series of major new commissions by some of the most innovative practitioners in design and architecture including London-based fashion designer Hussein Chalayan, the architecture practice OMA, founded by Rem Koolhaas, and the artistic director of Muji, Kenya Hara.
The eleven installations explore a spectrum of issues that define our time – from protecting the environment to network culture and sentient robots. The exhibition asserts that design is deeply connected not just to commerce and culture but to urgent underlying issues – issues that inspire fear and love. This is a bold, multidisciplinary exhibition that aims to capture the mood of the present and establish the Design Museum as the home of design debate.
The full list of commissions and designers will be announced on Monday 26 September 2016.
