Our alumna Marika Simon looks for financial support to realise her research project “Die Station der Zukunft”. She aims to enable young paediatric patients to design their own wards. So if you are still looking for a real Christmas present, you can find it on https://copalana.org/projects/station-der-zukunft!/509#.





Copalana hosts authentic projects requiring funding

As a warm-up for his guest lecture Forschungs-Mittwoch: Entreprecariat Career as Rapid Prototyping we recommend Silvio Lorusso’s reflections on his involvement in graphic design and design education “No Problem: Design School as Promise” at https://networkcultures.org/entreprecariat/no-problem-design/. Looking forward to discussing on Wednesday! (image by https://twitter.com/neuroticarsehol/status/1219194660993863682)

With great regret, our valued head of the Fachbereich Gestaltung und Kunst, Andreas Vogel, is leaving the Hochschule der Künste Bern HKB / Haute école des arts de Berne HKB. In the last years, Andreas has led the Fachbereich democratically and collaboratively and successfully profiled it as a more personal alternative to larger institutions. Now we are looking for a successor to continue this project and bring new ideas to the Fachbereich. Please find the advertisement at https://jobs.bfh.ch/offene-stellen/leiterin-oder-leiter-fachbereich-gestaltung-und-kunst-hkb/0dd6bb35-f8ca-4bce-96d1-e86c1145c6f9.





Daniela Moser gefällt an der BFH ganz besonders die Atmosphäre. «Sie ist irgendwie positiv, anregend und optimistisch. Wir alle wollen lernen, vorwärtskommen, etwas bewegen. Dieser Spirit beflügelt mich schon seit über 30 Jahren.»

Congratulations to Wir Publizieren for being selected as one of five exciting initiatives (besides Futuress, Decolonize Zurich, MACACO Press and Station of Commons) at VOLUMES, Art Publishing Days for a carte blanche! https://www.volumeszurich.ch/volumes-2020





We are very sad that this year we can only meet virtually on the VOLUMES, Art Publishing Days website. We would have been one of the five carte blanche projects in Zurich that could have been discovered.

We are honored to be in the company of such great projects as MACACO Press, Futuress, Decolonize Zurich and Station of Commons and to be featured on the VOLUMES, Art Publishing Days Website.

Merci Beaucoup!

Trotz erfolgreichen Schutzkonzepten der Kulturveranstalter*innen bringt der Kanton Bern mit restriktiven Schutzregelungen die Kultur zum Schweigen, während für Wirtschaftsbetriebe andere Massstäbe gelten. Für viele Künstler*innen und Kulturschaffende bedeutet diese eine existenzielle Bedrohung.

At today’s Junior Design Research Conference organised by our colleagues at the HSLU Hochschule Luzern, the new exploration section of the website was launched at https://junior-research.ch/explore. The goal was to visualize how programmes, disciplines, interests and identity-related aspects relate. Congratulations to our alumnus Max Frischknecht and his colleagues at Début Début for the implementation and happy exploring!

Here are the beautiful visual souvenirs of our sunny and relaxed Introduction Days from September 15 to 18 at the Alpenhof. Many thanks to the photographers and to all students who made these days what they should be: a place to getting to know, playing “Taboo” and exchange with each other far away from the daily routine of studying. Unfortunately, this is our last stay at the Alpenhof. If you have any tips for alternative and equally nice accommodations, we would be grateful for every tip!

It’s hard to overlook – the Hochschule der Künste Bern HKB / Haute école des arts de Berne HKB has a new appearance. If you would like to know more about the corporate design and the accompanying campaign, visit https://www.hkb.bfh.ch/de/themen/kampagne-hkb/.

Welcome, Andreas, Anouk, Ariane, Christina, Florian, Johanna, Kathrin, Patrik, Sibulelo, Stefan and Stefano!

The Forbes writes about it: “SIRI SIRI’s signature is to take unconventional materials, such as cut glass for bangles and jewels, and merge them with top-level traditional Japanese handcrafting.” Read more at https://www.forbes.com/sites/stephanegirod/2020/08/30/luxury-venture-group-selects-its-first-luxury-innovation-award-start-up-winners/#59d0eb9e198c.
