Whether the design can concern art or art to be perceived under a tag "design"? It is obvious, that problems of one and other creative phenomenon are various. However and there, and there speech can go about high quality (however, as well as about low).

“Design High”, the exhibition under such name, initiated under home nursing Louise Blouin Foundation, investigates a phenomenon of design art. Annoy exhibits — works Atelier van Lieshout, Joris Laarman, Robert Stadler and other masters of a genre.

The exhibition will take place in “Carpenters Workshop Gallery”. On a plan of curators, the exhibition should lower that friction which exists in mutual relations between an applied art and art. On this theme reflect Marc Quinn, Pablo Reinoso, Thierry Dreyfus, Vincent Dubourg and Sebastian Brajkovic.

That, for what love design, simultaneously and puts on design “tag”, reducing aesthetic, art value: functionality, applied character of things, a specific goal by manufacture. “Mission of great design — to make the world it is better or even to make, create the best world: more inspiring, fine, comfortable, logical, pleasant”, — the founder and chairman Louise Blouin Foundation speaks Louise Blouin.

“In such foreshortening, design art corresponds on the spirit, essence to culture to traditional art; it touches subjects and transforms our representation about them. This creativity can be absolutely prosy on the purpose, functional and applied, simultaneously causing euphoria and reminding us about infinity and infinity of our collective imagination”.
