Summary

COI synopsis: For a new building to go up, an old one often has to come down - and that means a lot of mess and eyesores while it’s going on. Diana MacLean visits an exhibition with a difference, designed to make artistic features of all those temporary blots on the landscape.

Researcher Comments

Featured exhibits include: The Lambeth Walkers and Finsbury Skate Park. Includes a brief interview with Dominic Hepher, joint designer of the skate park. NB: Information drawn from the Australian version
