Display / Displayed
Introducing Display / Displayed, a group exhibition for 3daysofdesign in collaboration with Simone Book Services that looks at objects of and for display across books, design, and photography. An exercise in creative collaboration, the presentation has been curated and produced by marketing agency Large Office, photography studio Mannners, sculptor Nicholas Shurey, and brand consultant Rhya Johnston-Wallace. Bringing together the works of international artists and local collaborators, it features works from Aarticles (Copenhagen), Anton Defant & Karst (Berlin), Derya Arpaç (Copenhagen), Jessi Burch (New York), Justine Menard (Barcelona), Luna Schulze (Copenhagen), Nicholas Shurey (Copenhagen), and Palsgaard kunstauktioner (Brøndby).
Objects on display are often mistaken for objects of frivolity. In truth, the desire to display an object in one’s home does not negate its function. Rather, it stands to reason that its function works in tandem with its decorative appeal. And aren’t we, after all, much more likely to impart use and meaning on an object that lives out in the open?
