From 22 February to 25 May, the Design Museum Den Bosch in \u2018s-Hertogenbosch in the Netherlands will be showing the exhibition Trans Europe Design Express – a journey through five design collections<\/em>. The invitation extended by museum director Timo de Rijk to jointly stage a trans-European design exhibition has been accepted by the Triennale di Milano from Italy, the mus\u00e9e cantonal de design et d’arts appliqu\u00e9s contemporains from Switzerland, the Domaine de Boisbuchet from France, the Designmuseum Danmark from Denmark and the Brussels Design Museum from Belgium, each contributing 25 representative works from their collections in order to initiate a European dialogue about their missions and the role of design in our time.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The uniqueness of this occasion – five design museums hosted by a sixth – is of historical significance in our expertise field. Together, they engage in more than an exhibition and a discussion on practices and collections; they are setting the course toward a broader reflection on the relationship between cohabitation, action, and dialogue – critical themes for the survival and evolution of museums, particularly those dedicated to design. This reflection encompasses public-private relationships, (in)dependence, institutional fraternity <\/span><\/span>in diversity<\/span><\/span>, and the resurgence of a collective “we” as opposed to the solitary and authoritarian “I.”
