Architecture Explorations
June 9 - August 11, 2014 |
Drop into the Heinz Architectural Center and take in the collection’s inspiring works for budding architects.
Each summer, Carnegie Museum of Art presents architecture camps and workshops in collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University School of Architecture. Alongside these camps, the Heinz Architectural Center’s gallery space also hosts a public exhibition of objects drawn from the department’s collection of drawings, models, photographs, rare books, games, and other material.
Open to all area students age six through high school, these lively programs investigate all kinds of structures—houses, bridges, office buildings, and museums, to name a few—and their changing use, design, and construction across history. During the program, half of the Heinz Architectural Center galleries transform into design studios for the campers. Chosen for their relationship to the camps’ themes, the objects in Architecture Explorations enlighten and inspire participants, while offering visitors insights on fundamental architectural ideas and strategies.
