Lecture: Won + Lost: Modern Architecture USA: Survival in the Sub-urbis

6:30 PM - 7:30 PM

In conjunction with the exhibition Marcel Breuer, architect Diane Lewis lectures on the competition-winning Riverview Music Quadrangle, a project to save Paul Rudolph’s first civic building. Since 1982, Lewis served both as principal at her own firm and as a professor of architecture at the Cooper Union School of Architecture. Her minimalist approach emphasizes refined, inventive use of structural elements and space, integrating the character of preexisting conditions.
