FRAME IN FRAME: Walkthrough I - Design & Installation

This walkthrough invites visitors behind the scenes of the Frame in Frame installation. At 4:30 PM, designers Stefano Panterotto and Alexis Tourron present their contributions — the Anagram sofa for Vitra, the bar developed with USM, and their lighting pieces — followed by Ben Ganz and Zurich University of the Arts, who introduce the ZHdK x Lehni collaboration. Together, the session explores how furniture, modular systems, and spatial elements operate as a single structure within the exhibition.

Frame in Frame, curated by Christian Herren, presents rediscovered Swiss structural films from the 1960s-90s. Vivid works unfold accross multiple projections at WSA within a spatial installation by Ben Ganz, Panter&Tourron, and Daan Couzijn, featuring furniture by Vitra, USM, Ruckstuhl, and ZHdK x Lehni. Presented by the Consulate General of Switzerland.
