Dan Cruickshank shows his son the model of the Truman Brewery
The Battle For Brick Lane exhibition that I curated for the Spitalfields Trust – as part of their campaign to stop the proposed Truman Brewery shopping mall with corporate offices on top – reopens this Saturday and can be viewed for the next three weekends. If you have not seen Annetta Pedretti’s extraordinary house at 25 Princelet St this is also your opportunity to pay a visit.
Sebastian Harding’s model of the Truman Brewery forms the centrepiece of the exhibition, complemented with displays of documentary photography by Phil Maxwell and Saif Osmani, celebrating the culture of Brick Lane.
The Battle For Brick Lane exhibition is open at Annetta Pedretti’s House, 25 Princelet St, E1 6QH, from noon until 6pm on Saturday 29th & Sunday 30th May, Saturday 5th & Sunday 6th June, Saturday 12th & Sunday 13th June.
We need volunteer invigilators for the exhibition. If you can help please send an email to Heloise Palin at Spitalfields Trust heloise@spitalfieldstrust.com
