JONALDDUDD is an independently organized exhibition of design-based works that prioritize personal expression and formal exploration over commercial conformity. The exhibitions offer a platform for artists and designers making irreverent works that challenge both industry and cultural conventions. PUNX NOT DEAD.
Announcing BARPHA, a new design show presented by Dudd Haus, the Philadelphia Design Collective.
BARPHA takes its name as a playful nod to a sleepy southwestern town that, through the vision of one transplanted creative, became a global destination for contemporary art. Philadelphia stands in vivid contrast: a city that for more than two centuries, has been a center for American creativity and ingenuity, home to generations of working artists and makers. BARPHA is a tribute to that grit and authenticity, presenting an exhibition of furniture design and craft by studios based locally and from around the country, emerging practices alongside leading figures in the field.
The show will take place as part of the DesignPhiladelphia Festival.
