Sam Laughlin
Architecture as monument
Fri 8 March 2013
Churchill College
This exhibition of photographic works emphasises the Modernist architecture of the College and its status as the national and Commonwealth memorial to Sir Winston Churchill. The project explores the themes of living memorials, monument and Modernism. Sam Laughlin's work is characterised by the use of a distinct aesthetic treatment and a newfound focus on specific aspects of the College's architecture. The project builds upon previous works by the photographer that explored meaning and memory as inherent in architectural structures and, in this project, he applies these themes to a vibrant college, the architecture of which stands simultaneously as a form of monument.
A limited edition exhibition catalogue with an introduction by Dr Mark Goldie, Fellow of Churchill College, will be available for purchase for £4.50. You can also visit the exhibition online here: http://monumentalchurchill.tumblr.com/
