Endless House: Intersections of Art and Architecture June 27, 2015–March 6, 2016 The Robert Menschel Architecture and Design Gallery, third floor Endless House considers the single-family home and archetypes of dwelling as a theme for the creative endeavors of architects and artists. Through drawings, photographs, video, installations, and architectural models drawn from MoMA’s collection, the exhibition highlights how artists have used the house as a means to explore universal topics, and how architects have tackled the design of residences to expand their discipline in new ways. The exhibition also marks the 50th anniversary of the death of Viennese-born artist and architect Frederick Kiesler (1890–1965). Taking its name from an unrealized project by Kiesler, Endless House celebrates his legacy and the cross-pollination of art and architecture that made Kiesler’s 15-year project a reference point for generations to come. Work by architects and artists spanning more than seven decades are exhibited alongside materials from Kiesler’s Endless House design and images of its presentation in MoMA’s 1960 Visionary Architecture exhibition. Intriguing house designs—ranging from historical projects by Mies van der Rohe, Frank Gehry, Peter Eisenman, and Rem Koolhaas, to new acquisitions from Smiljan Radic and Asymptote Architecture—are juxtaposed with visions from artists such as Louise Bourgeois, Bruce Nauman, Mario Merz, and Rachel Whiteread. Together these works demonstrate how the dwelling occupies a central place in a cultural exchange across generations and disciplines. Organized by Pedro Gadanho, Curator, Department of Architecture and Design, The Museum of Modern Art Architecture and Design Collection Exhibitions are made possible by Hyundai Card and Hyundai Capital America.

Press Release Frank Gehry First Major European
1st August 2014 PRESS RELEASE communications and partnerships department 75191 Paris cedex 04 FRANK GEHRY director Benoît Parayre telephone FIRST MAJOR EUROPEAN 00 33 (0)1 44 78 12 87 e-mail [email protected] RETROSPECTIVE press officer 8 OCTOBER 2014 - 26 JANUARY 2015 Anne-Marie Pereira telephone GALERIE SUD, LEVEL 1 00 33 (0)1 44 78 40 69 e-mail [email protected] www.centrepompidou.fr For the first time in Europe, the Centre Pompidou is to present a comprehensive retrospective of the work of Frank Gehry, one of the great figures of contemporary architecture. Known all over the world for his buildings, many of which have attained iconic status, Frank Gehry has revolutionised architecture’s aesthetics, its social and cultural role, and its relationship to the city. It was in Los Angeles, in the early 1960s, that Gehry opened his own office as an architect. There he engaged with the California art scene, becoming friends with artists such as Ed Ruscha, Richard Serra, Claes Oldenburg, Larry Bell, and Ron Davis. His encounter with the works of Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns would open the way to a transformation of his practice as an architect, for which his own, now world-famous, house at Santa Monica would serve as a manifesto. Frank Gehry’s work has since then been based on the interrogation of architecture’s means of expression, a process that has brought with it new methods of design and a new approach to materials, with for example the use of such “poor” materials as cardboard, sheet steel and industrial wire mesh.

Nowe Miasto Pod Ziemią New Underground City
EWA WĘCŁAWOWICZ-GYURKOVICH∗ NOWE MIASTO POD ZIEMIĄ NEW UNDERGROUND CITY Streszczenie Obserwowana na przełomie wieków fascynacja formami organicznymi, zakrzywionymi bądź pofałdowanymi zmusza do sięgania do świata przyrody, by odkrywać ją niejako na nowo. Szeroki kontekst środowiska, pejzaż, większe fragmenty natury nie zaskakują w analizie projektowej. Nie przypadkiem znowu powracamy do obecnej w awangardzie od lat 70. Sztuki Ziemi. Różnorodność bazująca na topografii terenu staje się podstawową wytyczną wszelkich działań. Słowa kluczowe: miasto, architektura współczesna Abstract Fascination with organic, bent, or undulating forms, observable at the turn of centuries, calls for reference to the world of nature to discover it once again. Broad context of the environment, landscape, bigger fragments of nature do not surprise in design analysis. It is not accidental that we return to the Art of Earth, present in avant-garde since the 70s. Variety basing on topography of the site becomes the guideline of all activity.

“Shall We Compete?”
5th International Conference on Competitions 2014 Delft “Shall We Compete?” Pedro Guilherme 35 5th International Conference on Competitions 2014 Delft “Shall we compete?” Author Pedro Miguel Hernandez Salvador Guilherme1 CHAIA (Centre for Art History and Artistic Research), Universidade de Évora, Portugal http://uevora.academia.edu/PedroGuilherme (+351) 962556435 [email protected] Abstract Following previous research on competitions from Portuguese architects abroad we propose to show a risomatic string of politic, economic and sociologic events that show why competitions are so much appealing. We will follow Álvaro Siza Vieira and Eduardo Souto de Moura as the former opens the first doors to competitions and the latter follows the master with renewed strength and research vigour. The European convergence provides the opportunity to develop and confirm other architects whose competences and aesthetics are internationally known and recognized. Competitions become an opportunity to other work, different scales and strategies. By 2000, the downfall of the golden initial European years makes competitions not only an opportunity but the only opportunity for young architects. From the early tentative, explorative years of Siza’s firs competitions to the current massive participation of Portuguese architects in foreign competitions there is a long, cumulative effort of competence and visibility that gives international competitions a symbolic, unquestioned value. Keywords International Architectural Competitions, Portugal, Souto de Moura, Siza Vieira, research, decision making Introduction Architects have for long been competing among themselves in competitions. They have done so because they believed competitions are worth it, despite all its negative aspects. There are immense resources allocated in competitions: human labour, time, competences, stamina, expertizes, costs, energy and materials.

By Ruth Palmon Submitted to the Department of Architecture on May 23, 2002 in Partial Fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Architecture Studies ABSTRACT The objective of this thesis is to explore the relationship between the self and the house. In approaching the subject, my assumptions were that the basic condition of the house-self relationship is of tension and animosity and that architectural design, following a psychoanalytical tendency to reduce tension, is used to improve this condition. When great amounts of energy and care are invested in this process, the narrative of tension and its resolution is brought to the surface through architectural drawings.

J. Carter Brown 1996 Laureate Sverre Fehn Ceremony Speech
J. Carter Brown 1996 Laureate Sverre Fehn Ceremony Speech Your Excellency, distinguished guests, and ladies and gentlemen. The man who starts the program can’t introduce himself, but Bill Lacy is the Executive Director of the Pritzker Prize and has been so helpful to our Jury. I have a wonderful Jury, and the Pritzker Prize is very fortunate to have such a distinguished and international group, and I would like simply to introduce them to you here tonight. Only one of our number could not be here tonight, but he was here yesterday, Giovanni Agnelli, Chairman of Fiat, who is from Italy. Many people think he is Italy, and he had to go back. But we do have from Tokyo, Toshio Nakamura. Toshio, do you want to stand? The Chairman of the Graduate School of Design at Harvard, who started life in Argentina, of Italian ancestry, Jorge Silvetti. Ada Louise Huxtable is a byword in the architectural firmament for critical excellence, having been the architecture critic of the New York Times, Ada Louise. Charles Correa of Bombay, India, is in his own right a winner of the gold medals of the International Union of Architects and the Royal Institute of British Architects, as well as the Aga Khan Prize, and is a great intellectual and connoisseur. I would be remiss if I didn’t point out one other juror who is not currently on the Jury but used to be. His name is Frank Gehry. As you know, this fabulous building is not only a work of art. One, at least, of its functions is to be a setting for great works of art.

In 2021, Philadelphia Will Emerge from the Pandemic with So Much to Look Forward To
CONTACTS: Cara Schneider (215) 599-0789, [email protected] WHY PHILADELPHIA IS THE MUST-VISIT DESTINATION OF 2021 2021 Brings An Outdoor Version Of The Philadelphia Flower Show, Major Jasper Johns Exhibit, New Independence Mall Attraction & An Upgrade To Valley Forge National Historical Park Visitor Center PHILADELPHIA, January 19, 2021 – Good things happen in Philadelphia, according to Condé Nast Traveler, recently naming Philadelphia one of eight must-visit destinations in the world for 2021. The popular magazine joined Travel + Leisure, Esquire, Frommer’s and others in raving about Philadelphia recently. The takeaway? Philadelphia should be on travelers’ 2021 must-visit lists thanks to a slate of openings, expansions and first-ever happenings, along with its iconic history, vast open spaces, resilient restaurant scene, cool neighborhoods and diverse hotel offerings. In 2021, Philadelphia will emerge from the pandemic with so much to look forward to. In May, Independence Mall will welcome its newest attraction: the Faith and Liberty Discovery Center. In June, the PHS Philadelphia Flower Show will move outdoors for the first time in its 192-year history. And in the fall, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, fresh off the unveiling of its Frank Gehry-designed renovation, will mount an exhibition of works by Jasper Johns, which will occur alongside a mirror exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City. Hotel openings include the city’s first W Hotel and a boutique property in a National Historic Landmark building, the Guild House Hotel. “In 2021, there are potentially 120 million domestic trips up for grabs, and 10% of these trips are from residents who live in northeast drive markets*,” says Jeff Guaracino, president & CEO, VISIT PHILADELPHIA®.

Architecture majors only. PREREQUISITES/COREQUISITES ARC311: Architectural Media 3 required. ARC 241: Environmental Systems – recommended. These courses will be linked in content and schedule. COURSE DESCRIPTION How do we design? What drives ideas and what generates concepts? How do we productively and critically engage with the vast history and contemporary practice of architecture in the process? How do we design places that are rooted in their location but reflective of the past and aspiring to a better future? How do we meld idealism with practicality? This studio will not offer answers to all of these questions but it will introduce one methodology and prompt a selfconscious and introspective approach to the design process. The studio is guided by ideas of morphology and context. Morphology is understood as formfinding or the deliberate, logical and wellargumented development of a formal strategy. Context is understood as the relation to site at different scales and through different lenses (physical, social, cultural) and includes the history of the discipline of architecture.
