This weekend, the Architecture and Design Museum (A+D) in Los Angeles will debut a new collection of exhibitions via its seasonal The Assembly opening event. The opening will highlight four new exhibitions set to occupy the museum's Arts District space for the next several months.
The exhibitions include All Over the Place, an exhibition created by the New York City-based practice Preliminary Research Office that offers up a continuation of the firm's previous exhibition at the museum All Over the Place. For their latest creation, the designers have crafted a pair of scale models depicting urban landscapes. One model is scaled as a conventional site model while the second exists at a one-to-one scale.
A second exhibition, The Executive Condolence by Codi Barbini, consists of a video installation that collects 37 presidential addresses following school shootings to "examine our collective past through a non-linear lens, highlighting the stagnant design of language in these public addresses," according to a press release.
The museum's RCH Alley Fellowship for this term is Berfin Ataman, who will present Movement and Motivation, a survey of the artist's work that includes wearables and kinetic sculptures that "explore the internal and external perceptions of movement as they relate to the body, space, and non-human objects."
Lastly, the museum's curatorial staff has created Museum as Brand: Staying Relevant in the Digital Age, an exhibition, curated in collaboration with Claremont Graduate University, that investigates five institutions and "examines trends in the use of digital technology and what this can tell us the changing functions of museums today."
The Assembly is set to take place Saturday January 25, 2020 from 7 to 9pm.
