Exhibition 'The Return of the Past: Postmodernism in British Architecture' in Sir John Soane's Museum
The first exhibition devoted to Postmodernist British Architecture, this exhibition focuses on the movement’s ‘radical moment’ in the late 70s and early 80s through the lens of its five most important architects - Terry Farrell, CZWG, Jeremy Dixon, John Outram, and James Stirling. Sir John Soane’s Museum was a major source of inspiration for these architects, and the exhibition will be shown both in the Museum’s exhibition galleries and adjoining Soane-designed period interiors, forging a rich, complex and at times surprising dialogue with the Museum and Soane’s own relationship to the architectural past.
