In Gedenken

Ingo Maurer (1932–2019)

"What's important to me is lightness - and transience. A thing should not stand like a concrete block, like a monument to eternity. We are successful when we evoke a feeling in people. Joy in their faces, that's what makes me happy." In memory of the German industrial designer Ingo Maurer who recently passed away, the MKG now presents elements of his halogen system "Ya Ya Ho" (1984) in the front staircase. More Information
