Initially the collection of the Design museum Gent predominantly consisted of eighteenth-century period furniture, but along the way it became the only Belgian museum specializing in twentieth-century and contemporary design. Their pride is the art nouveau collection. Alongside important Belgian artists (Henry van de Velde, Victor Horta and Paul Hanker) we see the work of foreign designers like Josef Hoffman and Otto Wagner. Works of representatives of modernism (Le Corbusier and Gaston Eysselinck) and post-modernism (Alessandro Mendini, Aldo Rossi, Hans Hollein en Andrea Branzi) are also part of their collection. Works by outsiders like Borek Sipek and Ron Arad show the broad interest for contemporary design. In this new museum catalogue, Lieven Daenens, curator of the museum, provides his readers with an extensive introduction and reproductions and notes on and about approximately 175 top pieces from the collections.
