The exhibition “Social Seating” at the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich explores the concept of sitting as a collective experience and a form of communication. Visitors are invited to engage with a diverse array of seating furniture, ranging from designs of the 1950s to contemporary pieces, encouraging interaction and dialogue among museum-goers. The exhibition reflects on the social contexts of collective seating, playful and modular designs, and the evolution of industrial design concerning materials and sustainability. Against the backdrop of increasing digitalization and social estrangement, “Social Seating” aims to foster direct human connections and promote analog conversations.
