Archive

The Archive is a key research tool.

The Archive is a key research tool and output for practitioners, art, design and architectural researchers. In this seminar Cass researchers Gina Pierce and Sue Andrews will present their work which has related to archival research, or is concerned with the creation of archives as a research process.

An archive tells stories through objects. The past has a relevance today that can be explored through seeing original drawings, furniture, photographs and samples. The Parker Knoll archive has all this, and is here in our London Met building ready to be unboxed. It even has something to say about Brexit...

All are welcome at Cass Research Seminars, both from inside and outside The Cass. For more information email Jane Clossick at j.clossick@londonmet.ac.uk and follow us on Twitter for the latest information @CassResearch
