    From Box to Anti-Box

    Berkeley Library celebrates its 50th construction Anniversary . From Box to anti-box investigates the construction and design process of this important building. Curated by Donal Hickey Architect the exhibition collects drawings from the Architectural Archive along with archival photographs and contemporary photographs. The contemporary photographs were produced by Paul Tierney Photography as part of a project researching twentieth century architecture commissioned by Dublin City Council. The photographs of the present day building augment the original construction photographs . John Donal also provides architectural images of the completed project. This images date from the late 1960’s. Of interest in this exhibition is the parallel development of Chandigarh in India by LeCorbusier and also the comparision with the adjacent Museum building by Deane and Woodword( link to Museum Building )
