Contemporary ceramics
Changing the World with a Flower Vase - Helvètes Vulcains
The mudac is devoting its entire temporary exhibition space to a two-part display of contemporary ceramics.
One part (second floor) welcomes the Albisola (Italy) 4th Biennial of Ceramics in Contemporary Art, built around the theme of flower vases; the other part (ground floor and one second-floor gallery) features a selection of pieces from mudac's own Ceramics Collection, highlighting contemporary Swiss creation and including several recent works.

Sagmeister: Another Exhibit about Promotion and Sales Material
An exhibition in the “carte blanche” series
Stefan Sagmeister, the "enfant terrible" of graphic design, has made a name for himself on the international scene with his off-beat, amusing and highly effectual approach. Having accepted the invitation to show for the mudac's eleventh carte blanche, the Austrian graphic designer, a resident of New York for over 17 years now, will be presenting only recently commissioned projects: CD covers, posters, catalogues, print design projects, furniture and several adverts.
The Lausanne design studio Big-Game will be installing the show, while the Zurich graphic designer Martin Woodtli, a former collaborator of Sagmeister's, will be handling the catalogue and communiqués.
A major work in two versions -French/English and German/English- accompanies the exhibition: Sagmeister: Another Book about Promotion and Sales Material.

A Flood of Art
In November 2008, mudac's main warehouse suffered a major flood. Within but a few hours, the works were totally inundated. Most affected were the Glass Art, Ceramics and J.-E. Berger Foundation collections. A number of broken and waterlogged pieces required immediate action.
It seemed important to us to share with the public as much the event as its handling, through the A Flood of Art show. The public collections belong to a collective heritage whose preservation is incumbent upon the museum professionals. Far from limiting itself to the accident's emotional impact, our exhibition gave full due to the restoration project and the riveting issues with which the mudac curators and the commissioned restorer had to deal.
