Experience the World of WearableArt Up Close when this touring exhibition comes to Auckland Museum.
The exhibition features 30 of the most elaborate and original garments with the stories behind each brought to life through an interactive showcase of creativity.
WOW has created audio visual presentations using the latest HP technology so visitors can view the large scale montage of WOW show footage and use the HP TouchSmart PCs to watch interviews with designers.
In 2013, the World of WearableArt will be marking 25 years since it first began wowing audiences with incredible designs that redefine what art is.
This is the first time in more than a decade that WOW is taking a selection of its very best costumes from its historic collection on a New Zealand tour and it’s your chance to see what has made this such a popular annual event. |
