[Art Knowledge News] Barbican Art Gallery announces Major Exhibition by Israeli Artist ...: Over the past two decades, Arad has collaborated with leading manufacturers, including Alessi, Capellini, Moroso, Notify and Vitra, successfully adapting his designs to affordable materials and industrial techniques. Initially a one-off piece made of sprung steel, Bookworm (1993), a flexible yet sturdy curving shelf with built-in bookends, was later produced in plastics by Kartell in three different lengths that could be endlessly combined and arranged.

CraftGadfly: It’s especially interesting to compare his RP outputs to work done on the same machines, but emerging from craft-based programs in the U.S. Arad’s designs are much more wide-ranging, dealing with formats as varied as vessels, chairs, interior design and architectural models. There can be no doubt that Arad is unafraid to design anything.

[California Literary Review] Art Review - Ron Arad: No Discipline at MoMA | California Literary ...: Step into the dimly lit gallery, and directly in front of you is “Cage sans Frontières (Cage without Borders),” a monumental, translucent structure made of grey gauze fabric, Cor-Ten and stainless steel””about sixteen feet high and 126 feet long””stretching the gallery’s entire length. (Its twisted figure-eight shape calls to mind an Anish Kapoor sculpture.) Works are on sleek display, mostly resting on square cut-out “shelves” of varying sizes that line both the cage’s interior and exterior walls.

[blog] Ron Arad exhibition at the MoMA: No Discipline : blog: Here Arad's rambunctious, often hugely influential designs and objects--his Restless Chairs and Readymades, his Wavys and Infinities, his Voids and Misfits--have been integrated into and displayed on and around the swirling, swooping Cage Sans Frontieres, which the artist created especially for the MoMA exhibit. The result is a sort of mischievous, free-spirited harmony, celebrating Ron Arad's career as an industrial designer, an avowed maverick, a design-artist, a visionary, an architect, and any and all other labels that have been applied to Ron Arad and his work over the course of the last thirty-odd years.

[Core77] The Many Faces of Design Leadership, by Kevin McCullagh - Core77: Given this, we now have to navigate and chart the gray areas we are confronted with. This in my eyes is the new role of designers today, making sure that we can fully comprehend what is going on and demystify it for others to understand and follow.

[Prospects for Peace] Piecing Together What's Just Happened between Israel and Syria ...: A - Getting very deep into Syrian airspace (over 100 miles off the mediterranean coast) just for lighting up air defense systems looks like an unnecessary risk for the pilots: Unmanned aircrafts can do an equally good job, and Israel is by no means short of those. Also - the public opinion in Israel would never endorse running this huge risk only for recon purposes (remember the Ron Arad tragedy), and although military decisions should be taken in total isolation from the public eye, I tend to believe that this is true only in theory.
