An advertising genius

Lucian Bernhard's monographs are on view in the touring exhibition "Advertising and Design at the Dawn of the 20th Century" at Bangkok University's Rangsit campus.

Germany's Institut fur Auslandsbeziehungen has arranged the tour of works by this pioneer of modern advertising language. Bernhard invented Sachplakat - the functional posters that reshaped advertising history. If you're familiar with ads by Bosch, Kaffee HAG and Pelikan, you know his work.

The show, with designs for posters, typography, books and magazines, runs from October 24 to November 25, Tuesday to Saturday from 8.30am to 5pm.

Old gas stations never die

Bangkok-based Danish artist Adi Kirketerp is building an installation specifically for the nightspot Bed Supperclub called "Fossil". It's about rampant consumerism, so be careful what you order when it's on view from November 7 to 20.

Kirketerp evidently became fascinated by a small, wooden shack that once sold petrol, bought it and reinvented it as an artificial home. Now it's going to Bed.

It's not about nostalgia, but evidence that adaptation is how you survive. Kirketerp plans to "invoke the sensory experience of the shack's original function and locale, through associated sounds, smells, and flavours", and there'll be a video to remind you what the structure was originally for.
