Synopsis
For a major new presentation in 2019, Whitechapel Gallery in London is taking as a model its groundbreaking 1956 exhibition This Is Tomorrow. Organised by architect, writer and sculptor Theo Crosby, This Is Tomorrow featured 37 artists, architects, designers and writers who worked together in 12 small groups. At its core was the Independent Group, the proto-pop collective comprised of (at various stages) Reyner Banham, Lawrence Alloway, Nigel Henderson, Eduardo Paolozzi, Richard Hamilton, William Turnbull and John McHale. Is This Tomorrow? also features 12 groups of contemporary architects, artists and other cultural practitioners to highlight the potential of collaboration, address key issues we face today and offer a vision of the future. They include Adjaye Associates, Andrés Jaque / Office for Political Innovation, Marina Tabassum Architects, David Kohn, Rana Begum, Cecile B. Evans, Simon Fujiwara and Kapwani Kiwanga.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Accompanying the innovative new 2019 exhibition 'Is This Tomorrow?' at Whitechapel Gallery, this fully-illustrated catalogue re-imagines the classic 1956 publication made for the Gallery's seminal exhibition 'This is Tomorrow'.For a major new presentation in 2019, Whitechapel Gallery is taking as a model its groundbreaking 1956 exhibition 'This is Tomorrow', an event which is indelibly linked to the institution's history. Organised and developed by architect, writer and sculptor Theo Crosby, 'This is Tomorrow' featured 37 artists, architects, designers and writers who worked together in 12 small groups. In the catalogue, Lawrence Alloway introduced the exhibition as 'devoted to the possibilities of collaboration', the results of which 'appear to be setting up a programme for the future.''Is This Tomorrow?' will also feature 12 groups of contemporary architects, artists and other cultural practitioners to highlight the potential of collaboration, to address key issues we face today and to offer a vision of the future. Both UK and international participants will explore subjects from conflict and warfare, economic inequality, migration and resource scarcity, to education, labour, trade and technology, comparing and contrasting the ideas of the original 'This is Tomorrow' artists and architects whose concerns with communication theory, mass culture and the vernacular reflected their associations with British Constructivism and the Independent Group.The accompanying catalogue will take its inspiration from the original seminal 1956 publication, with each group presenting their process of design and collaboration through plans, sketches and photographs, plus accompanying explanatory texts.Architects featured include Adjaye Associates (UK/US/Ghana), Alberto Kalach/TAX (Mexico), Marina Tabassum Architects (Bangladesh) and Studio Anne Holtrop (Netherlands).Artists featured include Rana Begum, Cecile B. Evans, Simon Fujiwara and Kapwani Kiwanga. Taking as its model the seminal 1956 exhibition This is Tomorrow, Is This Tomorrow? will feature twelve groups of architects, artists and other cultural practitioners to highlight the potential of collaboration, to address key issues we face today and to offer a vision of the future.
