ECAL × JEAN PAUL GAULTIER: Under Your Smell The exhibition Under Your Smell offers a hypnotic and immersive experience in Jean Paul Gaultier s headquarters by imagining new definitions of beauty and body expression. Under the direction of Florence Tétier and Nicolas Coulomb, 3rd year Bachelor Photography students brought to life the brand s iconic perfumes through an immersive photographic experience. In the first season, with the complicity of Claude Emmanuelle Gajan Maull, the young photographers have fluidified the iconic bottles with their gendered silhouettes — Le Mâle, Le Classique, Le Beau and La Belle — in a fresh LGBTQIA+ perspective. With this upcoming season, the project evolves around the Scandal fragrance, with the creation of still lives in which the liquid, dry and organic contrasting textures evoke the essence of the perfume, its bottle design and its complexities. Through staging, the perfumes become the backdrop for stories of transgression and fantastical projections. In addition to monumental fabric prints, giant image-cushions welcome the public to lay down and celebrate gender fluidity and the ever changing definitions of beauty and self expression.

Widely considered to be among the leading art and design institutions themselves, the ECAL approached internationally renowned designers, critics, and writers, whose answers reveal multiple approaches to teaching, in which individual style is not only encouraged, but rigorously pushed to develop into its most coherent professional form. Curated by acclaimed designer Jonathan Olivares and ECAL Director Alexis Georgacopoulos, the exhibition surveys a selection of twenty groundbreaking and defining projects by students and their tutors, all of them made out of fascinating teaching methods, leading to unconventional objects and revealed by a creative methodology in action, readily molding to accommodate the needs of the future. The exhibition shows a selection of these iconic projects and retraces their design process through a historical context. In other words, it challenges the question “How to best teach design today?”. A question that Max Bill and Ettore Sottsass tried to answer in 1983 in the context of the Design Since 1945 exhibition at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Their answer? Each gave a response that reflected his own image: the first emphasized the pragmatism and practicality of design. The second, its utopian and metaphorical character. These two lines of thought are found at the heart of the exhibition through its scenography: from the eccentric and colorful glass material to the functional and straightforward wooden structure, the exhibition answers the question in itself: there is not one but many best ways to teach design today. Beside the exhibition, the findings are also presented in a publication, published by Phaidon and edited by Jonathan Olivares et Alexis Georgacopoulos.

ECAL x On – 2040 Master Product Design students from ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne have created, in collaboration with Swiss brand On Running, shoe soles of the future. Under the guidance of Christophe Guberan, guest designer of MA Product Design and support of Thilo Alex Brunner, head of design at On, students explored within the context of the year 2040, concept shoe soles. The outcomes range from exploring the use of new materials and processes, to reinterpreting and re-contextualising common place aspects of todays world, all with a focus on future performance. A select number of the designs were developed into elaborate prototypes and exhibited at On s new headquarters in Zurich in collaboration with works from other ECAL MA s photography and Type Design. Developed Concepts:By Paul Rees: HOW TO CREATE THE SENSATION OF EFFORTLESS FLOATING DURING THE RUN? Inspired by the feeling of jumping on a trampoline, this shoe sole is composed of two elements: a customisable elastic web and a hollow EVA sole. This new construction offers a new running dynamic.By Clemens Neureiter : REIMAGINING THE CARBON-PLATE FOR RUNNING SHOES Pushing the expression of a shoe sole to its limits, this carbon fibre rod sole plays with the elasticity and the resistance of this highly technical material to create a good cushioning and to minimise both material usage and weight.By Tsubasa Koshide: HOW TO CREATE A SHOE SOLE WITH A CUSTOMISABLE BALANCE? Thanks to new multi-material 3D printing techniques, this shoe sole concept offers the possibility to customise material densities across the entire component. Each Shoe can therefore be precisely adapted to each runner.By Stefan Troendle: HOW TO MAKE A WOVEN SHOE SOLE ? Playing with new possibilities of 3D weaving, this shoe sole concept could be produced in one part allowing for both customisable cushioning and efficient production.By Antoine Jacquat: HOW TO PRODUCE SOLES WITHOUT MOULDS? 3D printing technologies are offering various new possibilities to the footwear industry; however, processes are often limited by slow production cycles. Instead, this concept uses a heat inflating 3D printed foam to allow for post-printing expansion, making production more efficient and feasible whilst benefiting from the free design constraint possibilities of 3D printing. By Lukas Lüttgen: HOW TO CREATE AN ADAPTIVE SOLE? Composed of recycled TPU, this concept shoe sole is designed to bio-mimic the fin-ray effect whilst being produced by traditional extrusion process. By Manuel Steffan: WHAT COULD BE THE LIGHTEST, YET HIGH PERFORMING RUNNING SOLE? This shoe sole concept utilises a 3D printed thread structure to both reduce the quantity of material required and allow for customisable sizing and compression density.Exhibition at On Headquaters:

ECAL×On : interdisciplinary collaboration to rethink the brand s universe Following a collaboration with the Swiss avant-garde brand On, ECAL is proud to present the interdisciplinary work carried out jointly by the 2nd year students of the Product Design, Photography and Type Design Masters. In 2010 On created a new running shoe sole with a disruptive approach: CloudTec®. Built around a set of “flexible elements”, On soles ensure cushioned landing and propulsive take-off for a unique running sensation. This design has since been adopted by running enthusiasts and professionals alike. Nowadays, the search for new materials and technologies encourages the brand to explore the future of soles. It is in this perspective that the collaboration between two leading entities in the Swiss design scene – ECAL and On – was born. Through a transversal approach to innovation, 26 students on a Master s programme at ECAL have developed a series of futuristic prototypes, rethinking the brand s universe, and exploring new writing systems. The interdisciplinary project brings together three Master s programmes: MA in Product Design, MA in Photography and MA in Type Design. Each year, these specializations attract students from all over the world.Product Design Under the direction of Christophe Guberan, guest designer of the MA in Product Design and with the support of Thilo Alex Brunner, head of design at On, 7 students present elaborate prototypes exploring the possibilities offered by innovative materials, techniques, and creative processes. A resolutely prospective approach that relies on speculative design to think the sole of tomorrow. Photography Under the guidance of the photographer Maxime Guyon, 8 students have given shape to what On s visual universe could be in the future. In close collaboration with the MA in Product Design, they present the universe and visual identity of the sole of 2040. Type Design Under the direction of Larissa Kasper, artistic director invited by the MA in Type Design, 11 students question the construction of written language, and explore its futuristic developments, both alphabetical and ideographic. For On, they offer a new writing system, which will accompany the sole of the future.STUDENTSProduct Design : - - - - - - Photography : - - - - - - - - Type Design : - - - - - - - - - - UNDER THE DIRECTION OFProduct Design : Christophe Guberan Photography : Maxime Guyon Type Design : Larissa KasperHEADS OF PROGRAMMESProduct Design : Photography : Type Design :
Three ECAL diploma projects win the James Dyson Award 2022 (Swiss) Three ECAL graduates - Yoosung Kim in Master Product Design, Anaïs Lehmann and Lucie Herter in Bachelor Industrial Design - have won the James Dyson Award 2022 for their diploma projects. Zest – – Master Product Design Zest is a tailor-made solution for people with cerebral palsy. It is a model of sports shoes adapted to the motor skills of its users. Made using knitting and 3D printing technology, it can be adapted to any person with motor disorders and allows the creation of customised shoes that meet specific needs. A project made possible thanks to the collaboration of professional athletes with cerebral palsy and a test in the laboratory of the Swiss sports brand On. Line – – Bachelor Industrial Design Line is a 100% natural alternative to the plastic mulching films and sheets that are omnipresent in agriculture and horticulture. This innovative project aims at solving the problem of plastic micro-particles in market gardening and thus reducing soil pollution. Made from linseed oil-treated flax, Line is a highly resistant film that does not release any chemical microparticles into the soil. Its woven strip systems make it very flexible for use in a variety of plantings. R2Home – – Bachelor Industrial Design While 2 000 radiosondes are sent into the atmosphere every day to collect meteorological data, only 20% of them are found. R2Home, a paragliding robot, makes it possible to control the landing of radiosondes and thus minimise economic losses and environmental pollution.

Paolo Moretti appointed head of the ECAL Cinema Department As of September 1, 2022, Paolo Moretti will become the new head of the Cinema Department at ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne. Director and programmer of festivals, notably of the Quinzaine des réalisateurs at the Cannes Film Festival, Paolo Moretti will take over the responsibility of the Cinema Department of ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne in September 2022. He will succeed Pauline Gygax as head of the Bachelor Cinema program and Lionel Baier for the Master Cinema program (co-directed by HEAD Geneva). "I am above all very grateful to ECAL for offering me this opportunity. I am excited to continue the work initiated by Lionel Baier, then Pauline Gygax and to confront myself with a new dimension of the transmission of the codes and languages of contemporary cinema", says Paolo Moretti. After studying modern literature, between 2001 and 2008, Paolo Moretti worked for several film festivals and institutions in Europe, including the Centre Pompidou, the Filmoteca Española, the Cinemateca Portuguesa, the Leeds Film Festival and Cinéma du Réel. From 2008 to 2011, he was assistant to the director and programming advisor at the Venice Film Festival. In 2012 and 2013, he is a programming advisor for the Rome Film Festival (CinemaXXI). Since 2012, he has been collaborating with the Visions du Réel festival (Nyon), first as a member of the selection committee (2012-2017), then as an artistic advisor. From 2012 to 2018, he is also a member of the selection committee of FIDMarseille. He is the associate producer of the American independent feature film L for Leisure by Lev Kalman and Whitney Horn, presented at the Rotterdam Film Festival in 2014. Between 2014 and 2020, he works as a director of the La Roche-sur-Yon International Film Festival and of the art house cinema Le Concorde. Between 2018 and 2022, he is the general delegate of the Quinzaine des réalisateurs at the Cannes Film Festival. Since 2020, he has been the director of the art house cinema Les Cinémas du Grütli in Geneva, where he will be able to continue to carry out his mission in conjunction with ECAL, thanks to a redistribution of tasks, notably administrative, of the Geneva institution. "Paolo Moretti has an exceptional network and a rich and varied international experience, punctuated by numerous successes. Through his desire to constantly highlight the films of young talent, he has established himself over time as a valuable and privileged interlocutor for filmmakers and the industry. I am sure that his approach as an outstanding facilitator will suit our students perfectly and will lead them to progress even further and to surpass themselves", says Alexis Georgacopoulos, ECAL Director. For the Bachelor Cinema program, Paolo Moretti will replace Pauline Gygax - who will keep a part of her teaching at ECAL, but will concentrate primarily on her activity as a producer, the intensity of which obliges her to reduce her workload within the Cinema Department. As for Lionel Baier, co-director of the Master Cinema program, he will continue his career as a director, while also maintaining a teaching schedule at the Lausanne school. ECAL would like to take this opportunity to thank them for all their work and for having contributed to the fact that its film courses are considered among the best internationally.

ECAL Milano 2022: Yamaha Sound Machines,07–12.06.2022,Spazio Orso 16, Milano On the occasion of the Milan Design Week (7 to 12 June 2022), Master Product Design students from ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne have created, in collaboration with Japanese brand Yamaha and its Design Laboratory, new types of music players in order to meet new requirements related to listening to music. Under the guidance of Camille Blin, Head of the project, the students first investigated and documented different contemporary processes and ways of listening to music, specifically through photographs and videos. The aim was to create a cartography of these practises. In a second step, they transcribed and applied these findings to new music playback devices – relevance and innovation being essential in this phase of the project. Finally, with the help of specialists from the Yamaha Design Laboratory based in Hamamatsu (Japan) and Los Angeles (USA), they developed the formal and technical qualities of their initial concepts into prototypes. Six projects were finalised, with great attention to details and materials, which are now presented thanks to a scenography by Anthony Guex. Hence, the exhibition features a music player that offers musicians a new way to practise their instruments using artificial intelligence; an installation that responds to the growing demand for live concerts at home by using a combination of sound and light to mimic a real concert environment; ASMR instruments that offer listeners a soothing moment by playing the sounds of relaxing movements; a home speaker that allows for a smoother transition between the different music players commonly used in the home; a player that offers an unexpected experience by displaying the rotation of a vinyl record vertically on a pedestal, and a speaker that allows people to listen to their music using their favourite objects as a trigger.

Exhibition "Time Design" with ECAL,14.04–08.05.2022,Pont de la Machine, Geneva On the occasion of the "Time Design" exhibition organised by Watches and Culture - Fondation de la Haute Horlogerie and presented from 14 April to 8 May 2022 at the Pont de la Machine in Geneva, students from ECAL Bachelor of Industrial Design programme have created the display (windows), highlighting a hundred pieces that illustrate the inventiveness and diversity of watch design. Presented as a preview at the Watches and Wonders exhibition for the specialists, the exhibition is now accessible to the general public in the Pont de la Machine in Geneva. Over nearly 180 m2, visitors are taken on a journey through watchmaking creativity, from the 17th century to the present day. The display designed by Elie Fazel and Valentin Sieber - during a course given by Christian Spiess as part of the Bachelor s degree in Industrial Design - reveal a hundred or so exceptional pieces that have marked the history of the watch, bearing witness to this great watchmaking tradition or to a futuristic design. The display windows as well as some pieces of furniture imagined by the two former ECAL students are inspired by the urban grid pattern characteristic of La Chaux-de-Fonds, the cradle of watchmaking. Each module is based on the same construction of thermo-lacquered aluminum gratings. In addition, ECAL has also made a selection of a hundred watch advertisements from the archives of Europastar magazine, which was published from 1940 to 2000. These are presented on a dedicated screen within the exhibition.

Master Fine Arts symposium at ECAL,28.03.2022,IKEA Auditorium, ECAL ECAL Master Fine Arts Symposium: How Soon Is Now? Histories and Figures of Youth. ECAL Master Fine Arts Symposium How Soon Is Now? Histories and Figures of Youth Monday 28 March 2022 9am - 5pm IKEA Auditorium HOW SOON IS NOW? HISTORIES AND FIGURES OF YOUTH This symposium is the first stage of the research project How Soon Is Now? Histories and Figures of Youth. It questions “youth” as a conceptual, aesthetic, and political figure born with modernity in the visual arts, popular culture, and the humanities. At the same time, this project proposes to examine the implications of the problematic category of “youth” in contemporary art and thought. By exploring the processes in which youth is constituted through its forms of representation, this project intends to render intelligible the aesthetic and political dimensions of youth, and to grasp it as a historical allegory allowing for a reconsideration of the contemporary in the light of its most lively site. 9am Welcome coffee 9.30am Welcome, Stéphanie Moisdon Introduction, Philippe Azoury and Vincent Normand 10am Representing Youth / Experiencing It.

ECAL Conference: Joan Fontcuberta,23.03.2022,IKEA Auditorium, ECAL ECAL Conference: Joan Fontcuberta – Visual artist & photographer, Barcelona. Joan Fontcuberta Visual artist & photographer, Barcelona Wednesday 23 March 2022 at 6pm IKEA auditorium, ECAL As part of a workshop with the students of the Bachelor Photography programme of ECAL. In addition to his work as a visual artist oriented towards the field of photography, Joan Fontcuberta (born in Barcelona in 1955) develops a plural activity as a teacher, critic, curator and historian. Through the manipulation of the photographic image, he questions the effects of reality and the capacity of truth produced by the technological image. In a logic of denunciation of authoritarian discourses in the context of information, he dismantles, through different series - Herbarium, Fauna, Sputnik, Les Sirènes de Digne, Miracles et cie... - the language specific to the disciplines of science, information and other vectors of knowledge. In his latest projects, he is interested in the nature and function of the image in digital culture. Visiting professor at institutions such as Harvard or Le Fresnoy, he has written numerous essays, including Le boîtier de Pandore, Spanish National Prize for Literature - essay category in 2011. He has also had solo exhibitions at MoMA (New York), MIT (Cambridge - USA), the Maison Européenne de la Photographie (Paris) and the Science Museum (London). Many of his works are in public collections such as the Centre Georges Pompidou (Paris), the Met (New York), the National Gallery of Art (Ottawa) or the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía (Madrid).

ECAL x Jean Paul Gaultier: Smells Like Queer Spirit,05.02–24.04.2022,Musée des beaux-arts, Le Locle From 5 February (opening on 4 February at 6 pm) to 24 April 2022 at the Musée des beaux-arts in Le Locle, ECAL presents the exhibition "Smells Like Queer Spirit" created in collaboration with Jean Paul Gaultier by third-year Bachelor Photography students, under the direction of Florence Tétier and Nicolas Coulomb (Novembre). Namsa Leuba and Erwan Frotin, two graduates of the Bachelor Photography programme at ECAL, will also be honoured with two monographic exhibitions. In the 1980s Jean Paul Gaultier overturned dress codes and showed the porous boundary between masculine and feminine. The fashion designer playfully reversed roles, overturned gender and designed silhouettes that combined masculine sensitivity with feminine power. When they were launched, the brand s perfume bottles also broke with the androgynous fashion of the 1990s. Now iconic, these served as the starting point for photographic exploration by students of the Bachelor in Photography at ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne. For this research project directed by Florence Tétier and Nicolas Coulomb – under the watchful eye of Claude Emmanuelle Gajan-Maull, consultant LGBTQIA+ – the photography class questioned the human body and its representations. The images created in 2021 by the 12 students relate to themes of pride and tolerance. These works show that commitment to a more inclusive society also relies on images. A publication, co-edited by ECAL x Jean Paul Gaultier x Novembre and designed by Baptiste Gerbelot Barillon & Jean Marques, is also being published to coincide with this exhibition.DATESOPENING RECEPTION Friday 4 February, 6pm EXHIBITION From 5 February to 24 April 2022 ADRESSEMusée des beaux-arts du Locle Rue Marie-Anne-Calame 6 2400 Le Locle www.mbal.chARTISTSDominique Bartels, Julie Corday, Matthieu Croizier, Diego Fellmann, Florian Hilt, Samara Krähenbühl, Angèle Marignac-Serra, Antoine Martin, Lisa Mazenauer, Marvin Merkel, Inès Mermoud, Basil Pérot, Yolane Rais, Camille Spiller, Yul Tomatala
