Tupperware / plastic fantastic.


The other day I was just watching the news when the next quote came along: 'every 2,5 seconds there starts a Tupperware party somewhere in this world'. First thought was: oh my god, what's wrong with this world and why is this on the news? It seems to be a very popular thing among certain groups of people.

Anyhow, the Gemeentemuseum in The Hague has seemed to pick up on this 'trend' and dedicated a whole exhibition to these plastic household items. They exhibit a range of Tupperware objects from the fourties, fifties and sixties in colours like pink and other pastels. Tupperware even seemed to have contributed to feminism back in the days.

Curious about the history of these little plastic household miracles (I would be surprised if you would, the title of the exhibition even says "I know you'll be excited!") or maybe just bored? Take a nice little trip to The Hague and let the plastic tell you it's story.
