Discover the life and work of an architect with a strong social mission.
Talking Buildings celebrates Richard Rogers not only as a pioneering architect but also as a thinker, campaigner and humanist. Curated and designed by his son Ab Rogers, the exhibition highlights the wide-ranging influence of Rodgers, from iconic projects like the Zip-Up House, Pompidou Centre, Lloyd’s of London and the Millennium Dome.
Additionally, two commissioned films by Marina Willer reveal Rogers’s views on these projects, complemented by graphics from Graphic Thought Facility.
