A captivating theme to be inspired
This yearʼs Open Set will draw attention to the theme "Memories of the Future", a program that explores how the notion and perception of memory can be used to stimulate alternative approaches towards the future. How are memory and the future connected? How do we activate memory? Is memory something set by our cultural frames of reference? “Open Set is about how the most influential international designers, artists, and thinkers together with the young generation of creatives influence the image and role of design today and tomorrow”, says Shapiro, artistic director of Open Set.

More about Open Set
The Dutch Design Summer School Open Set is an intensive two-week thematic programme consisting of a series of one or three day workshops, symposiums and film screenings, led by Dutch and international designers, artists and researchers. Our goal is to promote and enhance the social value of design by facilitating debates around our chosen theme from a rich diversity of perspectives, design trends, traditions, and across cultural practices. The event aims to offer international participants a studio environment where they are inspired to step out of their comfort zone and question the conventional ways of working, experiment with different strategies, techniques, ideas and cross-sector collaborations in order to develop their own practices with confidence.
Location
Open Set is located in Rotterdam, one of the top-10 city destinations in the world! The program is hosted by Kunstblock Rotterdam, – a cooperation between different art institutions located on the cultural center of the city – Witte de Withstraat (Showroom MAMA, Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, TENT, WORM,V2_Institute, CBK Rotterdam).
