The core activities of architectural students remain “Authority,” the study of treatises and theoretical works, “Observation,” the study of the(...)

The Mound of Vendôme
Actions:
Description:
The mound of Vendôme is a seemingly simple yet provocative artifact: an earthwork that became a central part of a radical attempt to transform urban iconography during the two-month rule of the Paris Commune in 1871. This exhibition and research project recalls this lost structure and calls for its contemporary reconstruction and historicization. Curated by David Gissen,(...)

Description:
Luca Danese was an architect and hydraulic engineer active in northeastern Italy in the first half of the 17th century. His career, while rooted in the peculiar geography of the Po River Delta, interacted with and was shaped by the broader hydropolitics of the papal government that was busy transforming Rome’s water infrastructure. Further, it was the period when, with(...)

This revival is usually associated with the turn towards objectivity and the search for expressive means to communicate ideas in three dimensions—but how was the model transformed in the age of its(...)

Curatorial practice as it emerged during the twentieth century is no doubt being extensively recast. The tremendous change in the status of the object, of culture, of the various disciplines, or information and education, implies an inevitable transformation of the curator’s role and competences.
