ExperimentaDesign Amsterdam 2008After 4 successful editions in its native Lisbon, ExperimentaDesign, the international Biennale dedicated to design, architecture and contemporary culture, was invited by the City of Amsterdam to branch out to the Dutch Capital.
As a result of this, ExperimentaDesign will now take place in alternating years in Lisbon and Amsterdam, each with different programmes.
In 2008, Amsterdam hosts its first edition of the Biennale, from 18 September to 2 November, under the theme Space and Place - Design for the Urban Landscape.
ExperimentaDesign Amsterdam 2008 highlights urban culture as the playground for the global citizen.
The world's cities are not only home to over half of the world's population, they are also a metaphor for today's cultures and a testing ground for new forms of conviviality and interaction.
Throughout its three core exhibitions, the Biennale turns the spotlight on innovative urban design as a process of social action, exchanges and experiment.
As in previous editions of the Biennale, ExperimentaDesign Amsterdam 2008 promises to set the city's pulse racing with a challenging, multidisciplinary programme that combines exhibitions, urban interventions, lectures and debates.
For over a month and a half, the Dutch Capital will be host to a fresh selection of international talent, buzzing with playfulness, interactivity and creative energy.
