Paper clips. Corkscrews. Umbrellas. Egg cartons. Light bulbs. Zippers.
Ho-hum, you might say.
But starting Sunday, the Museum of Design Atlanta is treating these mundane things as nothing short of heroic in the exhibition “Hidden Heroes: The Genius of Everyday Things.”
MODA, the Southeast’s only museum focused on design in its many forms, is hosting the touring exhibit that conveys the design stories behind 36 classic objects that have, in their own humble fashion, revolutionized the way we live.
Organized by the Vitra Design Museum in Germany, the show will be on view through May 11.
MODA hours: 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays-Saturdays (until 8 p.m. Thursdays), noon to 5 p.m. Sundays. 1315 Peachtree St., Atlanta. $10; $8 seniors, military and educators; $5 ages 6-17 and college students. 404-979-6455. www.museumofdesign.org.
