New project 'opshop', combines the concepts of the opportunity shop and optical art as its basis. "The word 'opshop' was mentioned to me for the first time in 1976. I understood this to mean a shop dealing in optical art and may have had something to do with language problems I experienced, as a dutch immigrant."

"Opshops reflect the attitudes and beliefs of previous generations, and as such act as reference libraries, filled with potential treasury. This exhibition continues from projects, such as 'Crown Lyn New Zealand' (a salvage operation) and 'Things to Come', aiming to present artworks, fashion and services which reflect our interest in modernist design at an affordable price."

Crown Lynn Potteries Limited once the "crowning" glory of the ceramic industry is this country offered a touch of e.egance and perfection in a range of your choice, became yet another casualty of those corporate vandals so much admired in the 1980's. Crown Lynn New Zealand has now been reconstructed and is offering a series of images with new purposes, for you, the viewer to enjoy at your leisure.
