I’m Going Slightly Maed …

Starting in April 2022, Frappanz and the master’s degree program in editorial design (MAED) at the Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts, Department of Design will be showing selected seminar and final projects in the second part of the new exhibition series. With I’m Going Slightly Maed …, the design works will be presented to a wider public, thus making the complexity and relevance of editorial design visible. Magazines, newspapers, and books surround us all every day, but what is behind these publications? What motivations, themes and ideas drive young designers, and how does a concept become a design idea?

The series gives innovative editorial projects a direct space in the urban environment. The projects are starting points for discussions and thought movements and situate the students’ considerations and implementations in the direct cultural and social contexts.

The openings take place on Thursdays at 6:30 p.m.. Feel free to visit the opening or view the works while passing by through the large shop window of Frappanz.

The exhibitions are a collaboration of Frappanz-Kollektiv Kultureller Freiheiten e.v. and the University of Applied Sciences Dortmund, Department of Design.
