人/REN at the Shanghai Creative Industry Week
15 - 21 October 2009
Shanghai
COORDINATION presents its latest design study on the Shanghai International Creative Industry Week.
REN is a multi faceted design study made out of stainless high polished steel. When seen from the right perspective the chinese character 人 (REN/people) becomes visible. REN shows the diversity of people and the ability to look into more than one direction. It is designed to show fragments of different viewpoints rather then a linear view to create the full picture. It constantly changes to a different perspective.

Bilder im Kopf | Mental Images Special Exhibition
21 May - 11 October 2009
Haus der Geschichte Bonn
Mental Images. Icons of Contemporary German History
Certain images have emerged out of the flood of pictures that form our consciousness of the 20th and 21st century, for example, the East German border guard leaping over the barbed wire fence into freedom, or Willy Brandt kneeling in Warsaw. The exhibition asks why these images are so powerful, looks at the history behind them and explores how they have become so well known.
COORDINATION has transfered the conceptual content of the temporary exhibition to a space of roughly 600 m2 in the Bonn House of History and have created a very diversified exhibition landscape. Centrally located is the ” Press Office,” which through the use of a facetted photo montage, defines the simultaneous and continuing occurrences of world wide events.
Bilder im Kopf. Ikonen der Zeitgeschichte
Aus der Bilderflut des 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts haben sich einzelne Bilder herausgelöst, die unmittelbar als „Bilder im Kopf“ entstehen: die Hissung der Sowjetflagge auf dem Reichstag 1945, der symbolische Händedruck zwischen den Parteiführern Pieck (KPD) und Grotewohl (SPD) auf dem Gründungsparteitag der SED 1946 der „Sprung in die Freiheit“ des DDR-Bereitschaftspolizisten oder der Kniefall von Willy Brandt in Warschau. Diese Bildikonen haben sich als Schlüsselbilder in das kollektive Gedächtnis der Deutschen eingebrannt und prägen das Geschichtsbewusstsein der Nation.
COORDINATION hat das inhaltliche Konzept für die Ausstellung in den Raum übertragen und für die knapp 600 qm grosse Wechelausstellungshalle des Bonner Haus der Geschichte eine abwechslungsreichen Ausstellungslandschaft geschaffen. Zentraler Raum ist das “Pressebüro” welches durch facettierte Fotowände die Gleichzeitigkeit und Permanenz weltweiter Ereignisse deutlich macht.
