Participation with the work «BD Type Crumbs» for the «Typographic Tables» exhibition at the Museion – Museum of modern and contemporary art Bolzano, Italy.

Our japanese friend and gadget artist Ryota Kuwakubo is currently setting up his installation «The Tenth Sentiment» for the exhibition at Gallery Lucy Mackintosh, Avenue des Acacias 7, 1006 Lausanne, Switzerland. Opening: 27th of October. Exhibition from 28th October – 26th of November 2011. The installation got the Excellence Prize, Art Division, Japan Media Arts Festival 2010 and we had the luck to see it in Tokyo last year. Highly recommended!

Büro Discount invites to the new exhibition «I Think I Wish You» by artists, Anxieteam band mates and New York neighbours Jim Avignon (GER) & Jon Burgerman (UK).

I Think I Miss You is about missing something and not wanting to admit it, or not acknowledging the absence before it is too late. Adrift with a very modern ennui, a sense of loss can offer comfort in it’s familiarity and utter inevitability. The work is rooted in pop and pulp. Contemporary character design and bold, colourful graphics are fused with a DIY fine art aesthetic to form an unique world. On the surface the colours and characters belie a charmed harmonious existence. Rooted within the skewed works are playful surreal kinks, laconic wit and a revealing truth.

Vernissage with the artists on site: Thursday 22th of September 2011, from 6PM.
Finissage: Saturday 29th of October 2011, from 6PM.
Büro Discount, Zurlindenstrasse 226, 8003 Zurich, Switzerland.
