COLLECTIBLE NOW

September 19-23, 2022, Timisoara

WHAT IS COLLECTIBLE?

THESE DAYS, THE TERM “COLLECTIBLE DESIGN” IS UBIQUITOUS. NEARLY 30 YEARS AGO, THESE TWO SEEMINGLY UNCOMPLICATED WORDS CAME TOGETHER, AND SINCE THEN, THEY HAVE GAINED MOMENTUM, SPAWNING A CONTEMPORARY DESIGN MARKET WITH MORE ARTISTS OFFERING WORKS THAT ARE MARKETED AS COLLECTIBLE—AS WELL AS THE RISE OF A COLLECTOR CLASS THAT WANTS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS UNIQUE MOVEMENT.

 

COLLECTIBLE DESIGN DEMANDS RESEARCH ON BOTH FORMS AND CONCEPTS. THE ARTIST, DESIGNER, OR CREATORS IN GENERAL INVOLVED IN THIS KIND OF PROCEDURE, EITHER REFLECT OR REACT TO THEIR PERIOD HE LIVES, WHETHER CONSCIOUSLY OR UNCONSCIOUSLY.

“IT IS A CROSSOVER BETWEEN THE DESIGN AND ART WORLDS”

FOR THIS REASON, WE PRESENTED BOTH SCULPTURES AND BESPOKE DESIGN PIECES. SOME WORKS MAY HAVE BEEN PERCEIVED AS COLD AND NOT SUITABLE FOR EVERYDAY USE BY MANY. IT IS, HOWEVER, A REFINEMENT OF THE MATERIAL WITH EXCEPTIONAL CAPABILITIES, THAT CREATES AN IMPRESSION OF PURITY AND FINESSE.

 

AMONG THE ARTISTS, WE CAN FIND: ANADORA LUPO, RADU PANAIT, MATYAS ATTILA, DAN JULA,  RADU BORCOMAN, EDUARD LOCOTA.
