Synopsis:

Celebrating its 40th anniversary of supporting French Design, le French Design by VIA presents NO TASTE FOR BAD TASTE, so Starck, so Bouroullec... so le French Design! The exhibition has already travelled to many different countries, joining major international design events to share the very best of French design and will be making its only Southeast Asia stop in Singapore at the National Design Centre.

The forty pieces exhibited have been carefully selected to represent the last ten years of French design production, and showcase works by Philippe Starck, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Ronan et Erwan Bouroullec, Matali Crasset, Mathieu Lehanneur, Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance, Christian Liaigre and Jean Nouvel, in a poetic scenography designed by Jean-Charles de Castelbajac.

A screening of a documentary on Matali Crasset followed by a Q&A session with the French designer is held on 17 Oct from 7pm to 9pm at the Auditorium of the National Design Centre (free admission).

A panel discussion on the links and bridges between Singapore and France design scenes is held on 18 Oct from 7pm to 9pm at the Auditorium of the National Design Centre (free admission).

This programme is part of Voilah! France Singapore Festival.
