We’re thrilled to invite you to a special evening marking the conclusion of ‘BOX IS A BOX IS A BOX IS A BOX’.
Join us for drinks, good company, and the Düsseldorf celebration of 3 objects magazine.
What are your three favourite objects?
This simple yet revealing question is the starting point for every interview in 3 objects - a print magazine founded in Berlin by Sven Durst. It’s an interview-based publication that explores the emotional and symbolic connections between people and their most cherished objects. In this issue, 13 interesting personalities are photographed in their homes - their “natural habitats”, with just a few film photographs per participant: a portrait and their three chosen objects. This issue takes a broader perspective, featuring voices from Berlin, New York, Los Angeles, and Sicily. Among the participants are artist Michael Stipe, Sicilian fermenting expert Marion Tiso, PIN-UP founder Felix Burrichter, bodybuilder Tischa Thomas, and architect Sam Chermayeff.

A box is a box is a box is a box—but is it ever just a box?
Inspired by Gertrude Stein’s famous poem, the exhibition explores different ways of perceiving the box. It is both an everyday object and a place of the extraordinary. Long serving as a protective space for memories and valuables, it is both a keeper of secrets and an organizational system.
