Magnitudes of Change: Local Sites and Global Concerns in Chicago’s Built Environment
April 18, 2015 |
“Magnitudes of Change: Local Sites and Global Concerns in Chicago’s Built Environment” is the title of the SAH Chicago Seminar, a half-day program comprised of a keynote address, “Reading Chicago’s Landscape as Urbanism,” by Harvard University professor Charles Waldheim, and two panel discussions. Panelists include architects Martin Felsen, Jeanne Gang, Carol Ross Barney, and Patricia Saldaña Natke, architectural historian Robert Bruegmann, Metropolitan Water Reclamation District Commissioner Debra Shore, and Alaina Harkness of the MacArthur Foundation. Transformations of the Chicago River and Lakefront and development and change in Chicago’s neighborhoods are the topics to be covered. Alison Fisher, Harold and Margot Schiff Assistant Curator of Architecture at the Art Institute of Chicago, will moderate the discussion. This program is funded in part by a grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts.
