Curator of Avery Drawings & Archives, Dr. Michelle Jackson-Beckett, remarked: “The gift of Michael Sorkin’s papers and architectural drawings to the department will undoubtedly be a significant research and teaching resource to serve faculty and students, as well as the wider architecture and design community. I am especially excited by the opportunity to build on a new direction to focus on targeted acquisitions that speak to issues of #socialjustice in the built environment in the coming years. #MichaelSorkin ’s influence on the field as an internationally renowned voice in architecture represents an historic step in this direction, especially considering Sorkin’s fearlessness in questioning many established structural biases and elitism in the field of architecture.” https://lnkd.in/dBrw2PAF
关于我们
In 2005, Michael Sorkin Studio underwent a mitosis with the founding of Terreform. Given a long history of polemical and activist work in a variety of registers, including design, advocacy, and writing - there’d been a long simmering desire to find a form of practice that was more transparent with the non-commercial – even utopian – projects and ambitions that engaged us. Not wanting to give up the prospect of “ordinary” building, however, we formalized the conceptual split into a “straight” architectural practice and an organization doing research, unsolicited interventions, publishing, and propositions. The studio works in a single spirit with a focus on questions of city, on its morphology, systems of equity, and metabolic behavior. Each side serves as the lab for the other but we’re all on the same page: the iron fiscal curtain between the two entities is a membrane that’s completely porous to ideas. The work is from a team that operates as both a “traditional” architectural studio responding to clients, and as a research practice that formulates its own agenda of investigation and intervention. Discoveries are passed back and forth and what Terreform has learned over the years from New York City (Steady) State – an elaborate speculation meant to determine just how autonomous our city can become – informs “official” projects Sorkin Studio has undertaken in Wuhan, Xi’an, or Istanbul and vice versa. All, however, test the limits of physical design to serve and enlarge broader human and planetary needs and desires and to represent ideas about happiness. https://www.archpaper.com/2016/11/metrophysics-sci-arc-sorkin-terreform/

Adjunct Assistant Professor Marina Correia B Arch ’06 is the inaugural Michael Sorkin Visiting Distinguished Lecturer at the Bernard & Anne Spitzer School of Architecture.? ... Correia first encountered Sorkin in 2006, when she was a fourth-year undergraduate student at the Spitzer School and he was leading an initiative on New Orleans in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. “That was my first introduction to urban design, and it was through the lens of #MichaelSorkin,” she said. “He presented this beautiful combination of thinking and activism and drawing everything together. This was a very foundational experience.” https://lnkd.in/gSm7DmJn

Looking forward to participating in this vital dialogue on the intersection of peace agreements and material reconstruction. What is reconstructed, and how it is done, under what legal, governance and financial frameworks, are critical determinants of the strength and durability of any peace agreement. Yet, discussions on peace agreements too often overlook an intersectional lens. One that integrates the physical rebuilding of the built environment and infrastructure with the financial and social architecture essential for lasting peace.
???????????????? ??????????????: ?????????????????? ???? ????????-???????????????? ???????????????????????????? & ?????????????????? ???????????????????? ???? ???????? Reconstruction is increasingly taking place in the absence of sustained peace agreements, or alongside nascent political transitions. Rebuilding after conflict isn’t just about physical infrastructure—it’s about people, politics, and inclusion. Amidst piecemeal peacemaking efforts, can reconstruction offer a pathway to inclusive politics? Join us on ??????????????????, ???????????????? ???? (????:????-????:???? ??????) for a critical conversation on how reconstruction can (or fails to) pave the way for lasting peace and political transitions in the ???????????? ???????? ?????? ?????????? ????????????. ????????????????: ? Dr. Nourah Shuaibi, PhD, Assistant Professor of Political Science at Kuwait University? ? Dr. Deen Sharp, Visiting Fellow in Geography and Environment at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) ? Zozan Alloush, Consultant and Member of the Women’s Advisory Board to the UN Special Envoy for Syria ? Professor Juma Kunda, Lecturer in Peace and Development Studies This session will unpack key dynamics shaping post-conflict transitions in the region, addressing the growing reality that peace agreements don’t always mark the “end” of a conflict, but rather the start of an ongoing political process. Expect sharp insights, real-world perspectives, and a space to engage with experts shaping these conversations. ???????????????? ???????? ?????? ???????? ???????? ??????????????: https://lnkd.in/dTExe9CP
