A Conversation with Martin Puryear
The biennial Wendy Evans Joseph Lecture on Art and Architecture presents artists whose work is inspired by the built environment.
On June 27, sculptor Martin Puryear will discuss his work with Architectural League president Billie Tsien. An audience question-and-answer session will follow.

Minimum Mobile Habitat
Design and Fabrication Workshop
This workshop explores the spatial interplay of mass and light to build modular, mobile architecture at human-scale through digital fabrication and full-scale prototyping.
Participants develop essential skills in digital design / making through a fabrication oriented investigation into ergonomics (mass) and atmosphere (light). This elemental relation informs essential questions of mobility as prototypes are deployed and tested in the streets of New York City in the final week of the session.

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS | Ardeth #04: RIGHTS
Design professionals and their actions seldom enter the debate regarding the relationship between city, rights, and powers. The project of architecture is often the carrier of a "tyranny of values" (Schmitt, 1966), as it breeds paradigms centered on form, on function, or even on consensus, that, for instance have indirectly reinforced the High-Tech trend. Deadline: July 15, 2018.
