Foulness Island

Foulness is the largest of the Essex islands and the fourth largest island off the coast of England. It is located near Southend-on-Sea and its vast and lonely stretches of isolated marshland are a stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of Essex favourite seaside resort. The island is divided from the mainland by a myriad of tidal waterways and is bound by the River Crouch to the north, the River Roach to the west and the North Sea on the east.

Radical Essex is a project re-examining the county in relation to radicalism in thought, lifestyle, politics and architecture. A programme of events will take place across Essex throughout 2016 and 2017, shedding light on the vibrant, pioneering thinking of the late 19th and 20th centuries. The project will celebrate the crucial role Essex has played in the history of British Modernism and its utopian ideologies under the themes ‘The Modernist County’ and ‘Arcadia for All’.

The Radical Essex site is designed by Fraser Muggeridge studio and Alex Rich, developed by Twelve.

Radical Essex is led by Focal Point Gallery in collaboration with Visit Essex and Firstsite. Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England it forms part of the country wide Cultural Destinations programme, a partnership with VisitEngland, supporting arts organisations to work with the tourism sector to deliver projects that maximise the impact culture has on local economies.
