Architecture for ALL Symposium – BILLIE TSIEN “OPEN” PRESENTATION AND Q&A

Welcome by Pieter Broucke, Director of Architectural Studies
Introduction and Q&A by John McLeod, Associate Professor of Architecture

As a practice, we are committed to the idea that a building represents a belief system. This is exemplified by the way it contains and nurtures the events and people inside. Through projects including the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, Lincoln Center’s David Geffen Hall in New York City and the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago, Billie Tsien will illustrate how architecture has the ability to open those institutions that have traditionally felt closed, creating an architecture for all.

FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
