22nd - 27th April '09
C’N’C CoSTUME NATIONAL
via Fogazzaro 23, Milan
For the occasion of this year’s Milan Design Week, internationally renowned Dutch designer Maarten Baas takes on the role of film director for his project Real-Time: Clock-movies.
Produced in conjunction with Diana Marrone, the exhibition will encompass more than 500 square meters and will include 3 movies, directed by Baas, based on time passing – each shot and mounted in the Netherlands between February and March 2009.
The passing of the time within the clock is projected by a multitude of people who were shot and screened in real-time intervals of 12 and 24 hours – allowing visitors to witness an exceptional rendering of time passing.
3D prototypes of Baas’ latest clocks will be shown alongside the movies. and will work as a rough description for Baas’ notion of time counters.
