The new site-specific exhibition ‘The World to Me Was a Secret: Caesious, Zinnober, Celadon, and Virescent‘ by Tai Shani (@Tai_Shani) previewed last night at The Cosmic House!
The Cosmic House is re-opening to the public on Wednesday, 1 May and we are very much looking forward to welcoming you back! #TicketRelease to visit The Cosmic House is happening today at 12 pm! 💫 ⏰ Wednesday to Friday at 3:30 pm 🎫 Pay what you can
NEWS // Crawick Multiverse in Dumfries and Galloway, has become the UK's first 21st Century designated landscape, having been completed just 7 years ago, in 2017. Designed by Charles Jencks, it was his final land art project and largest work in the UK. ➡️ c20society.org.uk/news/jencks-cr…
Kisho Kurokawa (黒川 紀章) was born on this day in 1934 🎉 In this slide from Charles' archive, Kurokawa is standing in front of his Nakagin Capsule Tower (1970-1972) in Tokyo. The Nakagin Capsule Tower was demolished in 2022, but 23 of the capsules were preserved.
Charles‘ studio at Cape Cod, where he spent summers with his family, was the first design experiment in which he used ad-hoc and bricolage concepts to create a cheap, metaphoric shed, which he titled The Garagia Rotunda. #charlesjencks #postmodernism #adhoc #bricolage
We hope you are having an eggcellent day! The oval shape at the entrance to The Cosmic House is a direct reference to the world egg, also known as the Cosmic egg. This is an ancient cosmogenic motif that is found in many cultures which saw the world emerge from an egg.
Springs in the Spring room! This is one of the many jokes Charles incorporated in the design of The Cosmic House. #symbolicarchitecture #symbolicfurniture #seasonsatthecosmichouse #humour #design #thecosmichouse #charlesjencks #postmodernism
A moment from The Cosmic House construction, 1979-1981. Maggie Keswick (right) and, based on information from another slide, Marcia Hare (left) are holding ornamental fence pickets atop the Architectural Library roof.
Ended my day at an extraordinary architectural expression of postmodernism @thecosmichouse A new museum, and archive thinking about future possibilities.
🎉 Eduardo Paolozzi was born on this day in 1924 🎉 Paolozzi was an important collaborator of The Cosmic House. He was present as an artist, creating The Black Hole mosaic and also served as a model for Celia Scott, whose bust of Hephaestus is based on him. #eduardopaolozzi
A lovely view while working on-site today at @thecosmichouse. Conservation today for this little model of Maggie's centre Oldham. Founder Maggie Keswick Jencks used her own experience of having cancer to create a new type of cancer care. (1/2) #ObjectConservation #architecture
Madelon Vriesendorp's dog will stay guarding The Cosmic House for a bit longer! We are excited to let you know that Madelon's exhibition ‘Cosmic Housework’ is extended and will stay on view until 13 September. #thecosmichouse #madelonvriesendorp #cosmichousework
We are pleased to announce that a new exhibition, ‘The World to Me Was a Secret: Caesious, Zinnober, Celadon, and Virescent’ by Turner Prize-winning artist Tai Shani will take place at The Cosmic House upon our reopening in April. Stay tuned for more information!
The pedestal with Thoreau's quote ‘As if you could kill time without injuring eternity’ in Winter's room at The Cosmic House once fittingly held a clock. The clock was then replaced with a Chinese scholar rock and now Madelon Vriesendorp adorned it with a snake.
A wintery slide from the #jencksarchive. J.V. Richter, P. Rose, and P. Lanken, Pavilion Soixante-Dix, St. Saveur, Canada, 1976–8. The slide was part of Charles Jencks’ slideshow in his installation in the Critics’ Corner at the Venice Architecture Biennale 1980.
More treasures hidden behind the bookcases at the #ArchitecturalLibrary are being discovered as our volunteers work to catalogue the library's collection – this time some of the Archigram magazines! Interested in exploring the #jencksarchive? Head to the link in our bio! ⬆
Here is a bust of the Greek God Hephaestus in the making, created for The Cosmic House by artist and architect Celia Scott in 1983 and modelled on the artist Eduardo Paolozzi. Head to the link in our bio to read a piece by Celia Scott on making the bust. ⬆
What's your favourite chair design? 🪑 Here's a selection of slides from our archive that Charles collected and used as an inspiration while designing furniture for The Cosmic House. If you are interested in browsing trough #jencksarchive, head to the link in our bio. ⬆
The Egyptian Room at The Cosmic House is a small study that houses Jencks’ books on Ancient Egyptian art, cosmology, and culture. Its interior follows Egyptian-inflected motifs, while the walls are covered with drawings of Egypt by David Roberts, 1839.
🎉 Happy New Year! 🎉 Madelon Vriesendorp turned Piers Gough’s upside-down dome into a lake inhabited by swans. In her personal iconography, Madelon describes the swans as a symbol of hope and promise.
