The exhibition ‘Richard Rogers + Architects’ (designed by Ab Rogers Design), which was showing at The Caixa Forum in Madrid, closed last month. And Vicki, the Curator of Exhibitions at Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners, has announced that this exhibition had attracted its biggest audience yet to the RR+A exhibition in the CaixaForum Madrid with 232,799 visitors!! Hip-hip Hurray!
To recap, the show at the Pompidou Centre in 2007 - which also made a record of attracting the most visitors to an Architecture Exhibition EVER (in the history of Architecture exhibitions opened at the Pompidou Centre), attracted just under 150,000 visitors.
So to date, over half a million people have visited the RR+A exhibition in total from Paris, London, Barcelona and Madrid!
We think this is an incredible figure for an exhibition of this size.

The press images for SHOWstudio: Fashion Revolution (Designed by Ab Rogers Design), arrived from our super-mega photographer John Short.
Despite the exhibition space being very very difficult to capture on camera, he did a wonderful job as always and we’re very happy about it.

22nd October 2009. With opening speeches from John Beddington (Chief Scientific Advisor to the UK Government), Ed Miliband (MP, Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change) and David Miliband (MP, Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs), the press opening of ‘Prove It!’ (Designed by Ab Rogers Design) proved to be great success, creating a huge buzz.
This December, 192 countries will meet in Copenhagen to tackle climate change. In preparation for this crucial summit, the Science Museum commissioned Ab Rogers Design to design Prove It!. This exhibition explores the scientific evidence behind climate change, signaling that it is not belief, but fact. At the same time, it inspires action and a sense of optimism for a greener future.
A series of large cone-shaped tensile structures fill the space, constructed from lengths of string attached to powder-coated white steel rings. The strings are pulled taut against the Science Museum’s physical structure, tapping into its excess energy. As a counterpoint to the wasted energy of the public building, the structures act as temporary monuments made from an absolute minimum of physical materials, beacons that signal environmental consciousness to the world.

And these are work-in-progress photos taken on-site, a week before the opening day - lots and lots of vibrant orange strings filling up the space!

The ‘SHOWstudio: Fashion Revolution’ exhibition at the Somerset House (Designed by Ab Rogers Design), is already near to coming to an end- and it is a bit late to post photos from the Opening Night - but I think it’s always better later than never, so here they are!
And our one and only - Mr. Nick Knight and Super Naomi Campbell!
(Behind her, you can see the 22-foot interactive sculpture of Naomi Campbell!)
Richard Greenwood, our project manager, was lucky enough to get some mobile snaps of them!
Thanks, Richard!
