MIT Architecture is pleased to announce our spring 2024 public program; a continuing conversation on where we are now, as always centered on our department’s convergence of design and research.
In the Spring of 2024, our program engages a series of Shifting Outlooks; spatial narratives in the age of artificial intelligence; editing architectural journals; conversations on care; building a Latinx aesthetic and ethos into the United States; imagining communities through architecture; designed and realized low carbon footprint projects; colonial climate engineering in the age of anxiety; “citizenship culture” at the US-Mexico border; and soft power frameworks. At each event, we invite in-person visitors and remote audiences to study and question how architecture shapes the ways we make, and change, the world.
This series is a collaboration between the faculty, staff, and students of MIT’s Department of Architecture, including architects, designers, urbanists, historians, critics, theorists, artists, social entrepreneurs, and experts in computation and building technology. MIT Architecture also continues our collaboration with MIT’s Morningside Academy for Design.
Alongside these academic programs and public events, student- and faculty-run exhibits, publications, and platforms expand our agenda. Spring 2024 features three exhibitions in our Keller Gallery: Drawing Experience, selected works from “A Form of Practice” by Adèle Naudé Santos, opening February 16 and Represent Her by Shift-W, opening in mid-April.
Events are held in-person, and streamed on our Youtube channel. We invite you to explore the full public program below and find more details including links to webcasts on our events calendar.
