Summer Show 2024 curated by David McAlmont

Our annual summer exhibition showcasing members' and fellows' work was on show at Dora House from Saturday 20 July to Saturday 21 September 2024.

The theme, Reality Check, was selected by guest curator David McAlmont who wrote an essay about the exhibition that can be downloaded here.

David McAlmont is a recording artiste, art historian and tutor at the Architectural Association Interprofessional studio. He is a Birkbeck and Middlesex University alumnus (History of Western Art and Architecture, and Performing Arts), author of the 'Permissible Beauty' film. Recent works include the album 'Happy Ending (A Guardian Album of the Year), and an article on the history of the word "Ghetto" for Mousse magazine, Shifting Visions and the Medici Society (January 2024). He is currently developing a Jacques Louis David project for 2025.

With thanks to The Marsh Charitable Trust for their generous support of the Best in Show Award that has been awarded to Steve Johnson FRSS for his work in the show Façade.

A children's resource was designed (downloadable here) to enable younger audiences to engage with the various themes in the exhibition.
