Developed by Courtauld National Partner volunteers, this new exhibition, Sights and Sounds<\/em>, includes documents, photographs, oral histories and objects that evoke lives and experiences of workers at the Courtauld Factory, demolished in 1972 but historically situated in Whitmore Reans from 1925 until it\u2019s closure in 1970. Visitors can experience a soundscape created by young artists, using artificial intelligence to create new sounds and images that bring the factory and worker\u2019s memories to life.<\/p>\n

The exhibition is open until 30th April at Wolverhampton Archives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
