David Kohn Architects: Fragments
1 – 13 March 2012
Lecture: 1 March 6.30pm
Private View: 1 March 7.30pm
Exhibition: 1 – 13 March 2012
The challenge of exhibiting architecture is addressed in this new show of work by David Kohn Architects. The gallery space at London Met is transformed through the presentation of a series of one-to-one fragments of recent projects: the rooftop installation ‘A Room for London: Roi des Belges’, an apartment in Barcelona, an arts centre in Hackney Wick, a desk for the Milan Furniture Fair and an exhibition display system for the Design Museum. In the accompanying introductory lecture, David Kohn will discuss the work of the office in relation to scarcity, craft and the city.
The exhibition and lecture mark five years since the office was established and follows three years after its first solo exhibition at London Metropolitan University where David Kohn has been teaching since 2003.
The exhibition is accompanied by a printed guide with an introductory essay by Swiss art and architecture curator, Moritz Küng.
Opening times:
Monday to Friday, 9am – 8pm
Saturday, 9am – 2pm
Closed Sunday
