Yale Center for British Art – Autumn Conservation Series

Commencing 23 Sept 2013 (19:00)
London – 70 Cowcross Street, EC1M 6EJ

A series of Case Studies on Conserving Modern Buildings

The autumn series of Conservation Case Studies will present an understanding of each building through the practice of conservation: archaeological and historical research is combined with a response to current and future uses. With each event we will draw, not only on the architects involved, but also the experiences of others in the process: the heritage and conservation bodies and the clients.

This series is devised by Docomomo UK and the Twentieth Century Society to put centre-stage to the public a very modern practice of conserving buildings from the recent past for which functions, forms and technologies are not instinctively familiar. The first talk in the series is by Inskip + Jenkins Architects who are responsible for the conservation and renovation of one of Louis Kahn’s most significant works: the Yale Center for British Art.
