Paul Veroude has made it easy for the audience to find out what’s inside one of these speedy vehicles. Using a Mercedes GP Petronas F1, driven by renowned race car driver Michael Schumacher, the artist deconstructed the 2010 model and suspended each piece, right down to the nuts and bolts. Weighing just over 600 kg, the installation, known as View Suspended II, boasts an overwhelming 3,200 separate parts hovering just off the ground. Most viewers liken the display to a vehicle explosion frozen in time. I like this display as each part is suspended from fishing wire or very thin wire of some sort - a transparent approach, creating a 'floating' appearance.
Dalton Maag Studio - "Shape my language"
http://www.designboom.com/design/bruno-maag-shape-my-language/
Shape my language is an exhibition showcasing the typographic contributions of Bruno Maag from UK graphic design firm Dalton Maag studio. The show presents typographic script systems developed by maag in various languages including latin, cyrillic, arabic and indian glyphs. Long chains of plastic cards hang from the ceiling, each card containing a single glyph from one of his thirteen different dalton maag typefaces. Currently, there are dozens of different script systems used in the world. However, Bruno maag shares the belief that the task of a typeface designers’ is not only to visualise the emotion with which a message is spoken but also to ensure that the reader can absorb the message with minimal distraction. This is a good example of using graphic communication in a exhibition - we could incorporate symbols, keys, images or text on the suspended displays.
