JANUARY 19, TUESDAY/MARDI 19 JANVIER
JANUARY 20, WEDNESDAY/MERCREDI 20 JANVIER with 35 new works by 42 individuals. Julie Nicholson and Shaun Moore of MADE have conceived Radiant Dark as a means to explore some of the multi faceted options of modern Canadian design practice. A continuing goal is to present a stimulating theme for each year which invites public engagement with the work of emerging Canadian designers. The 2010 theme of - Assets & Values - shows the makers of Radiant Dark to be reckoning with material, moral, ideological and aesthetic mores in their design of everyday objects. The current economic obsession demands an authentic and individual assessment of what constitutes real worth or value. The independently created works on display; reflect their maker’s determination to realize their ideas while creating something of meaning and value to others. MADE intends Radiant Dark to show in a fresh venue each year that invites a sense of discovery. Commerce Court as venue sponsor provides an intelligent backdrop for Radiant Dark 2010 - Assets & Values - in the lobby of Commerce Court West - the financial heart of Toronto at King and Bay streets. 33 Studios will present 35 new designs for Radiant Dark 2010 - Assets & Values - through the efforts of 42 individuals who are independent Canadian designers, makers, architects, artists and craftspeople.

Visually, these creations are comparable to intricate 'pop-ups', indeed, some works are deliberately engineered to possess 'pop-up'-like properties. However, origamic architecture tends to be cut out of a single sheet of paper, whereas most pop-ups involve two or more. To create a three-dimensional image out of a two-dimensional surface requires skill akin to that of an architect..
