BELGIAN STARS TO LIGHT UP LONDON

摘要

The Whitechapel Gallery is covered in scaffolding: one of London's foremost arts venues is expanding. Housed since 1901 in vaguely Art Nouveau premises by Charles Harrison Townsend, the gallery is annexing the former Passmore Edwards Library next door - a late-Victorian building by Potts, Son & Hennings. This will give the Whitechapel almost 80 per cent more exhibition space and transform its other facilities.
