Konzept/Libretto/Choreografie – Edward Clug

Turmoil and confusion over a dancing doll

Swanilda and Franz are engaged to be married. But she starts to doubt his love when he responds to the advances of the mysterious Coppélia. By chance, Swanilda discovers that the amazingly beautiful Coppélia is just a mechanical doll and devises a plan to reclaim the heart of her fiancé Franz. The ballet classic is based on E. T. A. Hoffmann's disturbing short story ‹The Sandman›. However, in this case, the horror element of a lifelike doll is set against the backdrop of an ideal world. Edward Clug is able to combine both emotions in his evening of modern dance and complements the vivacious original music by Léo Delibes with new compositions by Milko Lazar. The luxurious interior created by the highly successful industrial designer Nika Zupanc ensures a seductively playful verve permeates around Coppélia on stage. Clug evokes the mysterious and the bizarre by embracing the magic of beauty.

NIKA ZUPANC : BREAKING THE RULES

Nika Zupanc: Breaking the Rules

The first international publication dedicated to Nika Zupanc, globally recognized as one of the world’s best product and interior designers and also a style icon.  

Product and interior designer Nika Zupanc became a globally recognized name with the launch of the Lolita lamp. Zupanc works as an independent designer and is constantly involved in fresh projects that grow out of distinctive interpretations of modern culture, contemporary design, and the available technological options.
 
Born in Slovenia, the designer pours poetic disruption into the world of contemporary design. Her products and interior design projects challenge the rational, traditional, sober, and utilitarian by giving voice to the spontaneous, eclectic, and intimate. Her style has been described as “punk elegance” by Elle and “techno chic” Businessweek, and Zupanc has been crowned as a “real star” by the Wall Street Journal.
 

Text by Agata Toromanoff, Foreword by Domitilla Dardi

About The Author

Domitilla Dardi is curator of the design section at MAXXI, the national museum of architecture in Rome. Agata Toromanoff is an art and design historian.

Launch of Gioiello mirrors, designed by Nika Zupanc for Ghidini1961

Gioiello mirrors, a new collection, designed by Nika zupanc for Ghidini1962, is inspired by the infinite possibilities of a brass sphere as a single building block, designed to create a collection of objects and their story through repetition and play.


Brass spheres are polished to perfection, looking as precious as jewelry. By aligning them into numerous different shapes, they create a collection of versatile frames, without any other need to create new molds or tools for production.


With their simplicity they are therefore also elegantly rich in their appearance - making a basic geometric forms into exciting shapes that reflect and multiply in the mirrors, turning them into surprising and timeless wall companions.

EUROPE’S DESIGNING WOMEN / DESIGNSALON 2019


EUROPE’S DESIGNING WOMEN / DESIGNSALON 2019 (EN)Under the title “Europe’s Designing Women” Designsalon 2019 will show works by28 independent women designersfrom all 28 EU member countries representing the powerful creative energy of women in Europe.Curator Katrin Steindl has dedicated Designsalon 2019 to Europe’s successful designing women. Each of the 28 EU member countries is represented by the work of one independently producing designer. The exhibition was designed and implemented by Teresa Galen and Christine Hechinger. In a sensitive, yet powerful, presentation a round table serves as a platform for equality on which the individual exhibits stand on an equal footing. The Designsalon in the Wappensaal at Landesgalerien Linz will be opened on 27 September at 7 pm at the same time as the Kunstsalon [Art Salon]. The exhibition will run until 27 October.The powerful energy of female designers is ubiquitous. Products, brands and companiesas well as cities and realities are decisively shaped by the creative power of women in Europe. The works they produce are just as strong and powerful as those of their male colleagues. Yet by no means all the products created by women are designed for women as powerful, creative businesswomen design and produce for the world market. They operate as businesswomen, influential creative forces and bosses of design studios in a sector still dominated by men. “The Designsalon concentrates female creative poweron a stage, equal and analogous to the stars on the EU flag”,says curator Katrin Steindl,emphasising that the design, development and execution of this year’s Designsalon all grew in close and equal teamwork together with Teresa Galen and Christine Hechinger.Designsalon 2019 invites you to take a conscious look at female creative potential in Europe and to realise the extent of the obvious and successful creativity of female designers

The Tic tac clock 

designed by Nika Zupanc for Rossana Orlandi / Museo Nazionale Scienza e Tecnologia Leonardo da Vinci

A specialy developed project for Ro Plastic-Masters exhibition, curated by Rossana Orlandi. The project discusses the pollution of the oceans through an object with a strong simbolic meaning - a clock. The iconic object, which represents the past and decisions  that lead to polutions we are facing today, is made out of simple construction, upholstered in a fabric, made out of recycled plastics, that is embroided with yarns with rich and illustrative patteren, made out of iconic images of underwater life, by marine biologist and artist Ernest Haeckel. Both the fabric itself and embroidery threads used in the project, are made out of recycled plastic waste. The textile is made out of New life yarns, an ambitious project by Sinterama, using and recycling post-consumption plastic bottles collected in northern Italy. The sewing thread Mara r pet, produced by GUtermann, is made out of 100 % recycled polyester materials.  Embroidery of the patteten was technicaly developed and embroided by ErcigojArt.The project is concentrating on using materials from recycled plastic in a new and unexpexted way, as we believe that we also need to change and broaden the aesthetics of objects, made out of recycled plastic in order to offer the new poetics, feelings and exciting emotions.

Strings collection

designed by Nika Zupanc for Scarlet Splendour

The word strings evokes a vision of lightness in our minds. Be it the strings of a musical instrument or textile strings of everyday use. An elegant paradox emerges when strings are made of the hard steel and defined into cabinets and credenzas . Designer NikaZupanc magically achieves lightness and transparency in the Strings collection for Scarlet Splendour,  taking “strings” of metal and transforming them into path breaking furniture. There is an influence of waves in this collection as well, inspired by the sounds of the sea and the forms that waves take, in the sofas and tables

Hall 6 Stand C39 / Salone Del Mobile

Clip collection

designed by Nika Zupanc for Ditre Italia

Freedom once again: to create, arrange, invite, change your mind and reorganise. Clip set is inspired by timeless paper clips that can be used over and over again. A collection of free-sanding upholstered seating with the same theme in common but differing
in size and extremely versatile: the pouf, for example, can be turned into a coffee table. But these very lively elements can suggest lots of other transformations as well. The metal coffee tables that complement the range offer a functional and eye- catching contrast.

Dalmatia, collection of outdoor furniture

designed by Nika Zupanc for Point

Summers by the Adriatic Sea, the whiteness of the stones on the beach, or the dark purple of the wood from pine trees , this is what inspired the sinuous and delicate lines of the Dalmatia collection.  A collection consists of 9 objects, ranging from dinning chairs, dinning tables to sofas and arm chairs and coffee tables. A perfect balance between innovation, technology and design in an outdoor aluminium collection, which stands out thanks to the freshness of its lines, its comfort and its strength.
