BOFFO Building Fashion pop-up store
If it weren’t for the signage out front, it would be easy to walk by this BOFFO Building Fashion project and assume that it’s just another space under renovation in the slowly transitioning neighbourhood of downtown Manhattan. But what might look like a typical demolition site is actually a carefully considered pop-up-shop designed by London-based artist and architect Graham Hudson, in collaboration with non-profit arts and culture organisation BOFFO and one of fashion’s exciting new names, Patrik Ervell.
Ian Wallace
Hauser & Wirth is pleased to present an exhibition of four new groups of work by Vancouver-based artist Ian Wallace. With these works, Wallace takes the discourses of painting, sculpture and architecture and unites them within a single framework. As a development from the literary, expressive themes of his previous works, Wallace focuses on a ‘classical’ construction influenced by the compositions of modernism and minimalism in art and architecture.

Renovated Whitechapel Gallery

The Whitechapel Gallery will open to the public this month following its multi-million pound redevelopment programme. The Heritage Lottery Fund supported project has transformed the former library building next to the Gallery, increasing gallery space by 78%. Designed by leading Belgian architects Robbrecht en Daem (with London practice Witherford Watson Mann Architects), the expanded Whitechapel Gallery provides one of the most exciting new cultural buildings in Europe. Included in the expanded building are new galleries dedicated to presenting collections and new commissions; a permanent gallery and research room for the Whitechapel Gallery’s historic archive, and an Education and Research Tower including study and creative studios.

Prada ‘Waist Down’ Exhibition

Miuccia Prada’s travelling exhibition, Waist Down - The Skirt by Miuccia Prada, arrives in Korea on April 25, taking up residence in the malleable Transformer building in Seoul for the next month. The Transformer, designed by Rem Koolhaas, is a single structure with multiple purposes. Designed to be moved with each incarnation the building is covered with a soft outer skin and has four shapes inside, each of which will become the floor as the building moves and its uses evolve over the course of its five-month existence.
