This Fun Palace, will be the opening of a touring exhibition that will travel across the UK presenting Cedric Price and Joan Littlewood works from various archives – including the Canadian Centre for Architecture – and two original prototypes of market stalls designed by Cedric Price from the Drawing Matter Collection. This event will also include keynote speakers and a workshop.
The exhibition will be hosted by the schools of architecture at: Robert Gordon University, Aberdeen (October 2024), University of Edinburgh (November 2024), Staffordshire University (January 2025), Birmingham City University (February 2025), London Metropolitan University (March 2025) and London School of Architecture (tbc). Closing the tour, the project will participate in the Architecture Fringe festival in Glasgow (June 2025), showcasing a selection of the pedagogies inspired by Price’s radical practice and collected from the schools visited.
