The V&A East Storehouse, a new museum space in London's Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, opens to the public on May 31, 2025, offering free admission seven days a week. Housed in the former London 2012 Olympics Media and Broadcast Centre, the 172,222-square-foot facility displays over 250,000 objects, 350,000 books, and 1,000 archives from the Victoria and Albert Museum's collection. Designed by Diller, Scofidio + Renfro, the Storehouse features a glass-floored Collections Hall where visitors can freely explore shelves and mini-curated displays, with objects changed frequently. Highlights include the Agra Colonnade (1630s) from Shah Jahan's bathhouse and a section of the Robin Hood Gardens housing estate by Alison and Peter Smithson.

Forget Masterpieces—Show Me Everything

The Victoria & Albert Museum has launched the V&A Storehouse in East London, a massive open-storage facility housing over 250,000 objects, 1,000 archives, and a vast library. Designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro in collaboration with Austin-Smith:Lord, the space eschews traditional curated narratives in favor of a dense, immersive environment where visitors navigate four stories of artifacts arranged by cataloging logic rather than art-historical themes.

Do Ho Suh is searching for home in a major new exhibition at Tate Modern

Do Ho Suh's major new exhibition "Walk the House" has opened at Tate Modern's Blavatnik Building, featuring large-scale fabric constructions that recreate architectural fragments from homes the South Korean artist has lived in across Seoul, New York, London, and Berlin. The centerpiece, "Nest/s" (2024), is a monumental sewn passageway made from polyester using a historic Korean fabric technique, incorporating fine details like logos on air vents and light switches. The show also includes "Rubbing/Loving: Seoul Home" (2013-22), a 1:1 paper-and-graphite rubbing of his childhood home, alongside models, drawings, and film that explore memory, migration, and domestic space.
