converted as the “Ark Of Art” in 2027. The building contains art treasures salvaged from nations whose governments have collapsed and preserved for a “posterity”. It contains a shattered and rebuilt Michelangelo’s David, and Picasso’s Guernica. An inflatable pig is tethered to the exterior of the building, a reference to the Animals album cover.

In May 2007, Battersea Power Station played a central role in episode 5 of series 4 of the BBC TV series New Tricks.

In October 2007, the power station was used as a filming location for the Batman movie, The Dark Knight. The station’s stripped, empty interior was used as a setting for a burnt out warehouse.

Starting in December 2007, the interior of the power station was used in the film The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.
