" To mark the 10th anniversary of the Dutch Design Week, Premsela and the Dutch Design Week will host the exhibition ��Spring: Excellence, Talent and Inspiration in Design��, at Eindhoven��s Designhuis museum. The exhibition will illuminate links between designers from different generations and countries. It will feature work by 15 acclaimed Dutch designers who got their start in Eindhoven, like Maarten Baas, Richard Hutten, Jurgen Bey, Piet Hein Eek, Volvo��s Corien Pompe and Ikea��s Monika Mulder, as well as those who��ve influenced them and emerging talents that inspire them. Each acclaimed designer will also choose a promising young designer to share the spotlight.
Maarten Baas chose Massoud Hassani to share the spotlight with him. Massoud Hassani spends his childhood in Afghanistan, where he would make miniature models to be blown by the wind. Sometimes they would end up in a minefield, from where he could not retrieve them. This childhood memory was the inspiration for his graduation project ��Mine Kafon��, for the Design Academy Eindhoven. The ��Mine Kafon�� functions as an anti-landmine device and will roll about detonating any mines in its path, creating safe paths to walk on. ��Every destroyed land mine means a saved life����
In the Spring exhibition, some of Maarten Baas iconic pieces will be shown together with Massoud Hassani��s Mine Kafon."
