The work of self-delcared ex-designer Marti Guixe (b.1964) can aptly be described as 'beyond design'. Instead of creating new objects, which he finds rather 'superfluous' and 'boring' Guixe prefers to concentrate on ideas, systems and living matter like food and human behaviour. As a 'global designer', constantly travelling between Berlin and his city of birth Barcelona, Guixe analyses situations, rituals and gestures and proposes radical solutions with minimal ergonomics - simple, immaterial, humorous and often iconoclastic. This fascinating book will be linked to an exposition in Grand Hornu Images, in the summer of 2008.

Het werk van de zelfverklaarde ex-designer Martí Guixé (°1964) kan op toepasselijke wijze beschreven worden als ‘het design voorbij’. Nieuwe objecten creëren vindt hij eerder ‘overbodig’ en ‘saai’; hij verkiest zich te concentreren op ideeën, systemen en levende materie zoals voedsel en menselijk gedrag. Guixé reist als ‘global designer’ voortdurend heen en weer tussen Berlijn en zijn geboortestad Barcelona, analyseert situaties, rituelen en bewegingen en stelt radicale oplossingen voor met een minimum aan ergonomie – eenvoudig, immaterieel, humoristisch en vaak ook iconoclastisch.
