Hayward Gallery has a long history of presenting work by the world’s most adventurous and innovative artists. It is an outstanding example of sixties brutalist architecture, circa 1968, and is one of the few remaining buildings of this style. It was designed by a group of young architects, including Dennis Crompton, Warren Chalk and Ron Herron. After five decades of intense artistic activity and recent exhibitions from the likes of Martin Creed, David Shrigley, Tracey Emin and Jeremy Deller, the doors of Hayward Gallery closed on Monday 21 September 2015 for two years of refurbishment.It will focus on its extensive touring programme until the buildings reopen in 2017.
