Teaching at the College of Charleston (2014 - present) City and Cinema (regularly taught) This lecture course traces the past and ongoing exchanges between architectural and cinematic discourses. Beginning with the early “virtual spaces” of Greco-Roman stage sets, Picturesque pleasure gardens, and panoramas, the class then turns to the birth and evolution of the motion picture, from the silently explosive sets of German Expressionism to the neighborhood epics of Do the Right Thing and Attack the Block. The City as a Work of Art (regularly taught) This lecture course offers a global survey of the history of urban form, using case studies from many different cultures and time periods, from Chinese imperial capitals and Maya Puuc cities to the urban stagecraft of 9 Renaissance Italy and modernist mechanization. At the center of the course is an analysis of the design tools used to infuse the plans and public spaces of cities with political, social, cultural, and religious meaning, and to set the terms of human relationships. A graduate discussion section is included for students in the College of Charleston’s urban design MA program. American Architecture (regularly taught) This lecture course offers a critical survey of the history of architecture in the United States, from pre-colonial times to the present day, with a special focus on the many ways that architecture and urbanism have been drafted into varying definitions of “the good life” in the USA, and on the ways that the built environment has reflected and contributed to the social faultlines in America’s aspiring democracy. A graduate discussion section is included for students in the College of Charleston’s urban design MA program. The Architecture of Memory: Museums, Memorials, Monuments (regularly taught) This lecture/seminar hybrid course explores a history of spatial and architectural commemorative sites, primarily in urban societies. While the course begins with a global survey, it regularly returns to a special focus on the history of race in the American South and the region’s many contested and contradictory monuments, with the class exploring the memory-laden fabric of Charleston in particular detail. The final course project is a public exhibition of student designs for a new monument or memorial in Charleston that strives to make the city’s didactic landscape more inclusive and fair. This effort includes the making of a sixteen-page, full-color catalog brochure. Past exhibitions and their reception are outlined above. The Architecture of Utopia (regularly taught) This course examines the ways that different cultures have historically conceived of and represented paradise and/or utopia in spatial, architectural, and urban terms. It is essentially split into two parts, with the first half focusing on premodern utopias and paradises from the Mediterranean, Asia, and Mesoamerica, and the second half focusing on industrial and modernist utopias. Students are asked to consider ways that utopian discourse can help or hinder present efforts in the modern world to build an inclusive global community and confront longstanding and emerging economic, social, political, and ecological crises. This class has been taught as both a lecture/seminar hybrid open to all students and as a First Year Experience seminar for incoming Freshmen. Independent Urban Design Field Study (regularly taught) This online Maymester research and studio course is a required portion of the Community Planning, Policy, and Design (CPAD) MA Program at the College of Charleston. Students have completed their first year of urban design and architectural design studios as well as public policy and history courses, and must then take the lessons they have learned in the Charleston context and apply their principles while formulating an intervention on a problem site of their choice outside of Charleston, anywhere in the world, while regularly communicating their knowledge and aspirations with the professor and their cohort colleagues online. Field research and visual communication skills are key. Senior Seminar (regularly taught) The Senior Seminar is the capstone of the History of Art & Architecture undergraduate program at the College of Charleston. It is designed to allow students to deploy the skills they have gained over the duration of their studies to create a deep, substantial, original research paper. Faculty members teach it on rotation, and choose a topic that is specific to their research backgrounds. Eighteenth- and Nineteenth-Century Western Architecture (regularly taught) This lecture/seminar hybrid course explores the history of architecture and urban planning in the Ages of Enlightenment and Industry, mostly in Europe, with a heavy emphasis on theory. The central organizing thread 10 is the concept of progress, and the ways in which architecture has been crafted and interpreted to reveal, induce, or otherwise engage with the historical processes and evolutionary forces imagined by influential philosophers, architects, and critics as driving and shaping the destiny of humankind. Honors Thesis Independent Studies (regularly taught) Led year-long independent one-on-one study courses with individual Honors undergraduate students to guide them in the research and writing of their Honors Thesis. This document is the culmination of their studies at the College of Charleston, a substantial paper that explores both secondary scholarship and primary sources in order to articulate an original argument in the history of art and architecture. The Architecture of Cuba (Spring 2019) Spring Break travel course to Cuba taking both undergraduate and graduate students to Havana, Trinidad, Manaca Iznaga, and Cienfuegos. The course offers multiple engagements with state architects, urban planners, conservationists, and politicians, as students become versed in the history of architecture and urbanism in colonial and modern Cuba, and critically explore the ways in which different regimes and economic systems have created and adapted buildings and landscapes.
