Mushrooms:
The Art, Design and Future of Fungi
16 July - 13 September 2020

Curated by Francesca Gavin, the exhibition explored the legacy of a mushroom as a modern parable of collaborative survival and environmental renewal. By challenging human-centric narratives, 40 leading artists, designers and musicians examined new ways of imagining our relationship to the planet.
The visual identity, spatial design and exhibition graphics were created by Pentagram.
