Join us for a special evening to discuss design, community, authorship, and beauty with The Haas Brothers and Sisters—together for the first time in the United States—and Andrea Lipps, Assistant Curator and co-curator of Beauty—Cooper Hewitt Design Triennial. The Haas Brothers is the partnership of designer and twin brothers Nikolai (Niki) and Simon Haas. Playful and confrontational, they create furniture and sculptural objects that explore themes of nature, sexuality, social equity, and authorship. In 2014, they began collaborating with craftswomen from the Khayelitsha informal settlement outside Cape Town, South Africa, who lovingly call themselves The Haas Sisters. Together they create the expressive, fantastical, and joyful Afreaks collection. This series of beaded flora and fauna appears in Beauty—Cooper Hewitt Design Triennial.
