In conjunction with the retrospective of Ezra Stoller�s photography, currently on view at the Yossi Milo Gallery, the AIANY Historic Buildings Committee is pleased to present a forum that reviews these iconic images.
The program will review, through four case studies, important architectural masterpieces of the period and the images critical to their iconic stature within the public realm. While the buildings themselves are seminal works, the experience for many is via the two dimensional image rather than the architecture itself. The discussion will trace the complex relationship between the architect /architecture and its translation through the photographer�s message.
Columbia University professor, Kenneth Frampton, will discuss the work in the context of the modern movement, joined by John Morris Dixon, editor emeritus of Progressive Architecture who is contributing to an upcoming book on Ezra Stoller, along with Erica Stoller of ESTO. Brook Mason, New York correspondent for Britain's The Art Newspaper will discuss the relationship to evolving mass culture. James Sanders, architect, and author of the award-winning book, "Celluloid Skyline" will moderate.
The event is scheduled as follows:
6:00 pm Event opens at Tafel Hall with wine and cheese for participants and attendees.
6:30 pm Welcome comments regarding events at the Center and upcoming Committee events. Four case studies will be presented by James Sanders with discussion by the panelists.
7:35 pm Moderator and audience begin a question and answer period
8:00 pm Event ends, wine and cheese continue to be served.
