Krátky popis
On the occasion of his fifth and final year as Chair of the
Department of Architecture at the Harvard University Graduate
School of Design, architect and educator Mark Lee strings together
five ",footnotes",-on history, on cadence, on autonomy, on America,
and on point-to assess the relationship between architectural
education, research, and professional practice. Evoking a similar
position that marked his tenure, Lee delivers a lecture that
embraces dialogue, context, and precedent, and rejects the notion
of a heroic manifesto in favor of the footnote: ",something
ancillary, something used for referencing and providing citations
for metanarratives that already exist.", And why five? ",It's a
ubiquitous number in the culture of architecture. Five orders, five
architects, five points.", Foreword by Sarah M. Whiting.
