Brick City @ Verdant Works

Global icons made in LEGO bricks

We are delighted to host the touring exhibition ‘Brick City’ in the High Mill @ Verdant Works.  This is the first time this exhibition has ever been seen in Dundee and we expect it to be extremely popular.

Brick City is a celebration of some of the world’s favourite buildings and urban icons, recreated solely using LEGO bricks.  While to many, LEGO bricks are ‘just a toy’, to Warren Elsmore they provide challenging and enjoyable modelling medium.

These LEGO models, however, don’t resemble those you remember as a child.  A master of his medium, these fabulously detailed models may contain thousands of pieces – or perhaps just a handful  Either way, using just LEGO bricks, Warren may create a model almost indistinguishable from the real thing, or evoke the spirit of a building in just a few small pieces.
