A Clockwork Jerusalem

Great Britain

A Clockwork Jerusalem exhibition explores the emergence of a unique British modernity that combined industrialism with traditions of the romantic, sublime, and pastoral. It examines the techno-pastoralism that characterised British modernism and large-scale projects of the 1950s, '60s, and '70s. The exhibition also tells the story of how these modern visions were absorbed into the popular imagination through novels, films, music, and advertising. The exhibition explores the culture and products of British modernity as an architectural project and as a wider cultural experience.
