In this talk, Dr. Benny Kuriakose highlights a crisis in modern architecture, pointing out significant flaws in contemporary architectural education. He suggests that today's training overlooks climate considerations and other practical aspects, emphasizing the need for a fundamental shift in approach. This imbalance, he argues, is hindering the profession's ability to address real-world challenges effectively #knowledgesharingseries #bennykuriakoseandassociates #architecturaleducation

This Friday, September 27, a public conference hosted by GSAPP’s Temple Hoyne Buell Center for the Study of American Architecture, approaches the question: WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE ENTITY WE CALL “THE STATE” AND THE BUILD ENVIRONMENT? To reframe this question, this one-day conference draws from recent literature that has challenged the conception of the state as an autonomous monolith that exerts uniform power on the world around it. What does it mean to understand the state, instead, as an entity that gains its coherence from its effects? How can architecture, understood as a state effect, help re-conceptualize the state as a central conceit in modernity? Invited speakers include: Cole Roskam (HKU), Daniel Abramson (BU), Sophie Cras (Paris 1), Yara Saqfalhait (GSAPP), Sheila Crane (UVA), Sonali Dhanpal (GSAPP), Brodwyn Fischer (UChicago), Brian Larkin (Barnard, Columbia), Bruno Carvalho (Harvard) STATE EFFECTS is open to the public, but RSVP is required for non-Columbia affiliates. To attend in person, please email: buellcenter@columbia.edu by Wednesday September 25 to reserve your spot.
