AIGA
Design Conference
October 8–11, 2009
Memphis, Tennessee
What is designing today? And how do designers
define their own influence within the dichotomy
of making versus thinking?
These questions form the basis of this year’s
conference, “Make/Think,” which will
explore the ways that designers focus both on
making beautiful things and thinking about problems
strategically, and how those two roles interact.
Scores of presentations and breakout sessions
will stimulate every attendee across the range
of disciplines and interests pursued by today’s
designers.
The AIGA Design Conference is a biennial gathering
of the design community to celebrate design excellence,
reinforce friendships and connections and stimulate
thinking about the critical issues that surround
design practice. |

DAVID
MACILWAINE: Wire Sculptures
Ends September 30, 2009
Clifton Nurseries
London, England
David MacIlwaine began sculpting 25 years ago
when the need for a unique chandelier drove him
to scavenge the twisted metal rods that supported
the vines above his home in Italy. From these
humble beginnings a successful artist was born
and David’s work is now appreciated by art
lovers world wide. David’s sculpture can
be seen in album art work, in the designs of the
River Café and in the homes of his illustrious
clients but it still retains the charm and energy
of those first bent shafts. For move information
and images of some of the work that will be on
show visit www.davidmacilwaine.co.uk. Sculptures
start at £500. That's around US $820. |

American
Art 1950s–1970s
Ends October 11, 2009
Dallas Museum of Art
Dallas, Texas
Rich in major abstract expressionist paintings,
as well as responses to that movement in the collage-based
work of Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg,
the depth of our postwar holdings reflects several
important developments in American art from the
1950s through the 1970s. In these decades, the
dominance of European abstraction before World
War II gave way to the rise of New York as a center
of the avant-garde, while setting the stage for
numerous movements and styles whose influence
is still being felt today. |
