Affiche de l'exposition Criss + Cross

The exhib­i­tion Criss + Cross Design in Switzer­land unveils reveal­ing aspects about the skil­ful­ness and diversity of design in our coun­try. A selec­tion of more than 400 objects presen­ted in pack­ing cases demon­strates the vast panor­ama of 20th-century creat­ive work; it involves diverse gener­a­tions of design­ers and addresses every design discip­line. It groups the objects accord­ing to clear, relev­ant and often unusual themes.

Initially conceived to present Swiss design abroad, Criss + Cross aroused the interest of the mudac through the appro­pri­ate­ness of its approach. Besides the qual­ity of the selec­tion offered, it is judi­cious and reveal­ing to see and under­stand how Swiss culture displays and presents itself beyond its own borders. Exhib­i­tion conceived by the found­a­tion Pro Helve­tia.
