From 19th-century World’s Fairs to contemporary Venice Architecture Biennales, the presentation of architecture has a rich history in the field. This seminar introduces current questions about the ethics of showcasing architecture. In the course, students will examine how architecture has been represented, moved, copied, invented, and displayed within contained environments as a form of epistemology. Students will analyze examples from the history of architectural exhibitions and learn about the logistics of temporary installations. We will explore the history of architecture in exhibitions and museums, visit museums as a class, write reviews, and complete a semester-long design project proposing an architectural exhibition.
