The exhibition, part of the 2010 Melbourne Fringe Festival, is the annual ideas showcase that has grown over its 26-year history to claim a critical position in Melbourne’s design calendar. This year the exhibition is set to challenge and ask: can our traditional notions of country Australia actually exist within the metropolis itself?
As the urban sprawl continues its inexorable outward creep, Fringe Furniture looks at the encounters between the city and its others. Rediscover the spirit of a landscape fast disappearing; with this year’s theme The City has a face and the Country has a Soul.
Fringe Furniture is an open exhibition that welcomes a variety of furniture, lighting, homewares, wearable objects, permanent and ephemeral works. Fringe Furniture provides a democratic and accessible platform that connects artists / designers to broad and valuable audiences. Past exhibitors include Marc Pascal, Daniel Barbera and Malte Wagenfield.
