1001 Remarkable Objects

Powerhouse Museum

500 Harris Street Ultimo NSW 2007

August 26 - February 4 2024

Kate Rohde’s ‘Deer Vase’ 2016 is one of the 1001 objects included in the exhibition

1001 Remarkable Objects presents an unexpected juxtaposition of objects in 25 rooms that lead us on a journey across time and memory. The selection includes objects that have never been exhibited until now alongside much loved Powerhouse Collection icons.

‘We rejected the nomenclature of “treasures” or “masterpieces” and instead determined all choices must be in some way “remarkable” – whether by virtue of rarity, visual appeal, social history or an ability to invoke wonder.’
