Summary: not really in opposition
Comment: Against Design is the title of a thematic exhibition (February 4 - April 16, 2000) that brought together an international group of ten younger artists whose work consciously blurs the boundaries between art, architecture and design, environmental installation and interior décor. The artists were: Kevin Appel (Los Angeles); Angela Bulloch (Great Britain); Clay Ketter (Sweden); Roy McMakin (Los Angeles); Jorge Pardo (Los Angeles); Tobias Rehberger (Germany); Joe Scanlan (Chicago); Joep van Lieshout (the Netherlands); Pae White (Los Angeles); and Andrea Zittel (New York/Los Angeles). The "against" in the exhibition's title means alongside, not in opposition. The art, which includes an oversized vehicle, room-sized sets of furniture and large-scale images, draws from minimalism and formalism, along with industrial design from the 1920s to 1960s. Against Design took place at Institute of Contemporary Art (University of Pennsylvania) and at Museum of Contemporary Art - La Jolla.
