Architecture and Heritage
The buildings and structures from the past that we want to protect and remember.
What is it?
Architecture is the art of designing buildings. Heritage means things from the past that are important to us. Together, architecture and heritage are about old buildings that tell us about history. Some old buildings are protected because they are special. The painting of building demolition shows a building being torn down, which makes us think about what we lose when old buildings disappear. Another exhibit also shows a building being demolished, highlighting the loss of architectural heritage.
Why it matters
Old buildings help us understand how people lived in the past. They make our cities beautiful and interesting. When we lose old buildings, we lose part of our history. Art can help us remember them.
