The V&A’s autumn exhibition, Cold War Modern: Design 1945-70, will be the first to examine contemporary design, architecture, film and popular culture on both sides of the Iron Curtain during the Cold War era. It will bring together over 300 exhibits from a Sputnik and an Apollo Mission space suit to films by Stanley Kubrick, paintings by Robert Rauschenberg and Gerhard Richter, fashion by Paco Rabanne, designs by Charles and Ray Eames, architecture by Le Corbusier, Richard Buckminster Fuller and Archigram, and vehicles including a Messerschmidt micro-car. Highlights will also include imagined futuristic architecture schemes by Hans Hollein and experimental designs for inflatable buildings, including a full-scale reconstruction of a key work by Haus-Rucker-Co.
