Our Midcentury show at Bexhill
on Sea’s internationally-acclaimed De La Warr pavilion is
our Summer sojourn away from London and a real hit with midmod fans
all over the country. Here you will see a selection of 35 dealers
specialising in all aspects of mid-century design for the home.
This has evolved into a purely mid-century show in order to showcase
more dealers selling smaller pieces including ceramics, glass and
fabrics. See furniture and collectables from the middle of the last
century set in the finest Modernist surroundings; invest in design
classics from the likes of Eames, Nelson, Jacobsen and Aalto while
enjoying a good nose around Britain's first public Modernist building
and all its free exhibitions. All within a stone's throw of the
seaside.
The De La Warr Pavilion, designed by Eric Mendelsohn and Serge Chermayeff
in 1935, now a Grade One listed icon of the Modernist movement,
is one of the
most significant spaces in the emerging network of new arts building
in the South East of England. The café/bar and restaurant
offers fresh, local produce and magnificent sea views and the gallery’s
shop is unlike anything else in the area with top Brits showcased.
