De La Warr Pavilion, Bexhill on Sea, East Sussex (1962): A Snapshot of the 1960s This evocative photograph captures the De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill on Sea, East Sussex, in 1962. The modernist building, designed by Erich Mendelsohn and Serge Chermayeff, stands proudly against the backdrop of a quiet, tree-lined road. The pavilion, with its distinctive angular lines and clean, white façade, was a striking addition to the seaside town when it opened in 1935. The photograph reveals a bustling scene outside the pavilion. Cars are parked haphazardly along the road, their tires crunching on the gravel as people make their way to the venue. The pavement is filled with a mix of young and old, dressed in the fashion of the time. Some are carrying picnic baskets, while others clutch theatre programs. A closer look reveals a poster advertising an upcoming production of "Merchant of Venice" by Shakespeare, directed by Richard Burnett. The poster, with its bold typography and striking imagery, is a testament to the cultural significance of the pavilion as a venue for the performing arts. The history of the De La Warr Pavilion is rich and varied. It was originally built as a modern art gallery and theatre, but during the Second World War, it was taken over by the military and used as a hospital. After the war, it was returned to its intended use and became a hub of cultural activity in the region. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the pavilion was a thriving cultural center and a beloved part of the community. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our historical buildings and the role they play in shaping our collective memory.
