Since the mid-1990s an exciting building project has been underway, new cancer caring centres that offer a fresh approach in architecture and health with their commitment to the other arts, including landscape, they bring in the full panoply of constructive means. The "architecture of hope" is a new hybrid genre emerging with Maggie Centres, and a multiple metaphor that corresponds in kind to the many different types of cancer and their various treatments. This exhibition celebrates the artistic vision of the buildings through a display of the architectural models, photographs and stories.
