We are pleased that Botanicalls was not simply acquired by the Museum of Modern Art but is also being presented in a new exhibition called “This is for Everyone: Design Experiments for the Common Good” running through January 31, 2016.

Here’s a description of the show:

“This exhibition takes its title from the Twitter message that British computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee (inventor of the World Wide Web) used to light up the stadium at the 2012 London Olympics opening ceremonies. His buoyant tweet highlighted the way that the Internet”perhaps the most radical social design experiment of the last quarter century”has created limitless possibilities for the discovery, sharing, and expansion of knowledge and information. As we revel in this abundant possibility, we sometimes forget that new technologies are not inherently democratic. Is design in the digital age”so often simply assumed to be for the greater good”truly for everyone? From initial exploratory experiments to complex, and often contested, hybrid digital-analog states, all the way to œuniversal designs, This Is for Everyone explores this question with works from MoMA™s collection that celebrate the promise”and occasional flipside”of contemporary design.”
