Last week, students from Kingston University’s MA in Curating Contemporary Design curated a pop-up exhibition at the Design Museum which examined the role of the AA in breaking with the Modernist tradition and redefining architectural practice and education.

The exhibition featured material from the AA Archives, including AA student journals, drawings, film and photographs from the 1970s and 80s. Through the interrogation of the AA Archives, this collaborative project considered the role of archives in confirming but also challenging and providing alternative approaches to the established canon.

‘Architectural Radicals’ was on display at the Design Museum as part of London Design Festival 2019. Find out more on the Design Museum website.
