Atmoism. Designed Atmospheres. An Exhibition by Hermann August Weizenegger | Interviews

Film

With „Atmoism - Designed Atmospheres“, the Kunstgewerbemuseum of the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin is dedicating a major solo exhibition to the designer Hermann August Weizenegger (HAW). The concept is tailored to the house: Inspired by the 'soft brutalist' spatial atmosphere of the architecture of the Kunstgewerbemuseum designed by Rolf Gutbrod in 1967, the designer developed 24 stage set-like interventions. These unfold as sculptures, material compositions and object stagings like a net in the museum's permanent exhibition. The result is an atmospheric tour that opens a dialogue with the museum and its objects. In their entirety, the stations reflect a creative vision of future product(ion) scenarios – somewhere between man, craft and medium-sized industry.
