20.09.2007 - 23.09.2007 / Utstilling
100% Norway 2007, once again curated by Henrietta Thompson, this year occupied 100% Design at Earls Court from 20 - 23 September. The exhibition was organised by the Royal Norwegian Embassy, Innovation Norway, the Norwegian Design Council and the Norwegian Association of Arts & Crafts, with support from the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and SeaCargo.
Last year, visitors to 100% Norway were treated to a spectacular show of the best of Norwegian design from cutting edge architecture to citybike schemes. For 2007 the show went from macro to micro, zooming in to take a closer look at the elements that make this country one of the world’s most exciting centres for design and creativity.
Including new work - from Norway Says, Catherine Maske, Sari Syväluoma and Anne Haavind among many others - the exhibition provided an insight into the long tradition ofglass, porcelain and textile design in Norway, and showed how with beautiful, innovative new pieces contemporary designers are now breaking the mould.
