While main current exhibit at Victoria & Albert Museum in London is Bristish Design 1948-2012 (March 31-August 12, 2012), the museum offers V&A British Design Season displays to complement main attraction.
You get Free Admission to all these thematic exhibits.
Themes range from British Adventure Comics 1950-69 to Island Stories and travel related King's Cross: Regenerating a London Landmark.
Island Stories (March 16-September 19) will appeal to amateurs of photography.
"Drawn exclusively from the V&A collections, this display is a selection of around 70 photographs celebrating the variety of photography in the UK since 1945. It captures the diversity of the island and its people."
King's Cross: Regenerating a London Landmark (May 19- October 21) documents changes under way prior to Summer Olympics 2012.
"This display features original drawings, photographs, models, and film footage documenting the work by the lead architects and masterplanners John McAslan + Partners and engineer ARUP to transform London’s King’s Cross Station for Network Rail. Timed for completion to coincide with the 2012 London Olympics, the regeneration plans will triple the station’s size and re-orientate its entrance to enhance transportation links with St Pancras."
Will have to see if any of these fit into my travel schedule late August.
