from 19 May to 29 October 2017 | Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe (MK&G), Hamburg

The exhibition Food Revolution 5.0 sheds light on one of the most pressing issues of the 21st century: What will we eat in the future? The exhibition takes a critical look at the global food industry and presents pioneering visions, ideas and designs contributed by over 30 international designers, architects, and scientists. The exhibition design and co-curating was entrusted to the renowned Dutch design studio Makkink & Bey.

Design exhibition and co-curator

Studio Makkink & Bey designed the entire scenography and co-curated the exhibition in close cooperation with head curator Design of the museum, Dr. Claudia Banz. The studio also exhibits a design for an innovative cattle farm ‘FreeRangeShelter’. The roof of the compost stable contains a volume in which the cattle keeper resides.

Next to her co-curatorship, Rianne Makkink and her team designed the entire scenography of the exhibition; from lay-out to designing all exhibition elements, including the designs of the tutorial backgrounds. All projects are put ‘in a bigger picture’ to give them a context.
