100 Beautiful Things is a pop-up gallery of design to celebrate World Design Capital 2014’s theme of Beautiful Places, Beautiful Things, and the launch of the international design show 100% Design South Africa.
Everything in the gallery is designed and made in SA and in production in 2014.
It is curated by former magazine editor and Programmes Director of 100% Design South Africa, Cathy O’Clery.
The gallery will be part of the 100% Design South Africa Pavilion at Decorex, 25-28 of April, 2014 at the CCTICC.
‘From the workshops of the high-end studios to the crafters sitting on the pavements South Africans’ creativity never ceases to astound me’, comments Cathy O’Clery. ‘Whether it is exquisitely crafted or a reflection of pop culture there is an extraordinary ability to make beauty in this country.100 Beautiful Things highlights just some of what is out there now from humble organic paper mache to super complicated 3D printing and it offers a rare chance to see many masterpieces of South African design in one place.’
The Cape Town Pavilion will offer a snapshot of 100% Design South Africa while showing some unique features, like the exhibition 100 Beautiful Things which will not be seen in Joburg.
