Jorinde Voigt
1/5/2010 - 22/8/2010
Jorinde Voigt works methodically and with mathematical precision, filling the paper with pencil patterns drawn with broad gestures; arrows, figures, words and lines form a dynamic composition that seems almost to move and vibrate.
Norm = Form
8/5/2010 - 15/8/2010
We all have our own personal style, reflected in the clothes we wear, the furniture in our homes and the cars we drive. Such choices seem to be abundant and individual, but never before have so many of the products around us been basically so identical.
Tupperware/ Plastic fantastic
3/4/2010 - 15/8/2010
The success of Tupperware was due in the first instance to the genius of Earl Tupper (1907-1983); his Tupper Plastics company began life manufacturing parts for gas masks and navy signal lamps.
Changing times - New worlds

Horrix and Mutters
18/9/2010 - 12/12/2010
A fascinating exhibition about Dutch interior design. In the nineteenth to mid-twentieth century, Hague firms Mutters and Horrix were two of the leading furniture manufacturers in the Netherlands.
Louise Bourgeois and Hans Bellmer
11/9/2010 - 16/1/2011
Although Hans Bellmer (1902-1975) and Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) were both in touch with the Surrealists in the 1930s, the two artists never met. Despite this, their work displays striking similarities.
Ina van Zyl
28/8/2010 - 21/11/2010
A still life, evocative, perhaps even erotic – that’s your first thought when you see a painting by Ina van Zyl (b. 1971). Look closer and her work creates mixed feelings of desire, loneliness and embarrassment.
