North Gallery: Volume 7 - by Andrew Benner & Luke Bulman (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Beginning in the Spring 2018 semester, the Yale School of Architecture Gallery launched a program to give students the opportunity to curate and stage exhibitions. The content is driven by student proposals and strives to be responsive to current interests and concerns in the school, while remaining open to the unique perspectives that stem from the breadth of our students' backgrounds and outlooks.

This publication gathers six exhibitions from the 2023-24 academic year. The first two ran in parallel to the exhibition in our main gallery, Isaac Julien: Lina Bo Bardi - A Marvellous Entanglement. The students were asked to also situate their proposals in relationship to Lina Bo Bardi, to provide further entanglements. The Spring semester brought a range of topics and approaches, from the urgent and activist, to critical and even whimsical takes on history. The last show was a unique one, gathering artwork (watercolors and sketches) by Professor Emeritus Alec Purves.
