Tour of London Postmodern Architecture
Pablo Bronstein
Frieze Commissions, Frieze Art Fair
Friday 15th October, 2006
Pablo Bronstein continues his investigations into the style that critics brayed at and the style conscious noughties urbanite forgot: post-modern architecture. Developing the invitation from Frieze Projects curator Polly Staple to create some sort of tour-based work to happen in or around the fair in London's Regent's Park, Bronstein decided to provide a geographical extension of visitor's experience by taking people on a bus tour of the city. Hiring a coach and fully embracing the role of tour guide, Bronstein crafted a route and an engaging argument about the relative value of post modern architecture to the landscape, development and perception of London today. Put down your Eames coffee-table reader, and go celebrate the decadent pretensions of London's boom town facades.
