Martin Beck, “Selected for their Implications”

http://www.vimeo.com/7968144

Conceptual artist Martin Beck will focus on methodological aspects of working with design history from an artistic perspective, including his reconstruction of George Nelson’s modular Struc-Tube system. He has exhibited work around the world, including Graz, London and New York City, and is the author of About the Relative Size of Things in the Universe (Four Corners Books, 2007).
