Appel à participation, inscription avant le 8 avril. The Museum of Architecture and Design launched an international Call for Entries for the 23rd Biennial of Design – the international exhibition and BIO Design Awards competition. The curators of BIO 23 are Margo Konings and Margriet Vollenberg of Organisation in Design. They have chosen the theme for BIO 23 “Design Relations” and will select the works to be exhibited from the submissions received in response to the Call for Entries.
BIO 23 Call for Entries is open! Deadline for entries: April 8
Designers, commissioners, producers, students and design organisations, from anywhere in the world, have until 30 March 2012 to submit products, concepts and projects, from any area of design, which have been created in the past two years.
 
The BIO 23 exhibition will be held from 27 September to 11 November 2012 at the Museum of Architecture and Design in Ljubljana, Slovenia.  Adopting the theme “Design Relations”, the exhibition will highlight fresh ideas and explore how design relates to the social, the sustainable, and the cultural, while displaying crossovers between culture and commerce, crafts and industry.

A jury comprising design experts Giulio Cappellini, Sven Jonke, Sophie Lovell, Jimmy MacDonald and Vasa J. Perović, will present awards to the best of the exhibited design works. The BIO GOLD MEDAL, BIO HONOURABLE MENTIONS, THE BIO GREEN AWARD and THE AWARD FOR A STUDENT WORK will be presented at the opening ceremonies of the Biennial on 27 September. The winner of the BIO Gold Medal will receive a monetary prize in the amount of €5,000.
