IMA Design Exhibition

European Design Since 1985: Shaping the New Century
March 8-June 21
Indianapolis Museum of Art (IMA)

European Design Since 1985 is a design exhibition organized by IMA.

This exhibition is the first critical survey of contemporary Western European decorative and industrial design, organized by IMA Design Curator R. Craig Miller. The exhibition and accompanying catalogue present 250 seminal works including furniture, ceramics, metalwork, glass and product design that reveal the extraordinary creativity of two generations of designers in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Portugal, Scandinavia, Spain and the United Kingdom. European Design Since 1985 reflects an important initiative by the IMA in the area of 20th- and 21st-century design. The project, which has required six years of extensive research, has been organized in cooperation with the Denver Art Museum and Kingston University, London.
