Event description

Join us in a ping pong tournament to remember inspired by Wiff Waff – the Victorian-era precursor to ping pong, where a row of books served as a net and a further two books were used to hit golf-balls from one end of the table to the other. Conny Freyer, Eva Rucki and Sebastien Noel of pioneering art and design practice Troika, create a series of unique table-tennis paddles for the night each making reference to a Ron Arad classic featured in the exhibition. Ladies and Gentlemen, choose your paddles!

Mass Produced

Be part of a series of fast and furious actionpacked evenings created by London’s hottest design talent specifically for Ron Arad: Restless. Not to be missed.
