Fresh Crop: Design EntrepreneursSchool of Visual Arts presents "Fresh Crop: Design Entrepreneurs," an exhibition of socially and environmentally aware products developed by 19 students graduating from the MFA Design Department at SVA.
The projects on view tap the power of design in various forms-graphic, motion, Web and 3D-to be both commercially viable and culturally significant.
The exhibition is curated by Dorothy Twining Globus, an SVA faculty member, Museum of Arts & Design curator of exhibitions and independent curator, and will be on view at the Visual Arts Gallery, 601 West 26th Street, New York City, from May 4 - 19, 2007.
Among the designs featured in the exhibition are: Bookfool, Amanda Spielman's Web-based matchmaker for readers that recommends fiction titles based on mood, interests and personal circumstances; Serifcan Ozcan's Biyografik, a resource for designers that embraces Turkish graphic design; Lara McCormick's Stop and Start Over, an awareness campaign intended to assist in the recovery process of substance addicts and alcoholics; Masood Ahmed's Pussykatz, a line of collectible erotic toys inspired by urban street trends and pop-culture icons; and Clement Wu's Killer Cantonese, a language course on DVD that teaches Cantonese through Hong Kong gangster films.
