2017 EX-CHANGE
Image
Inaugurated in the fall of 2017, EX-CHANGE represents an ongoing opportunity to shine new light on the School of Architecture’s programs and to position the work within larger questions of research and practice. The school’s studios generated rich provocations, collaborations, and opportunities for both orchestrated and spontaneous exchange. Beyond definitive answers, the projects and research of the studios grapple with an array of critical questions. These questions drove the inaugural end-of-semester exhibition and discussion with faculty, students, and invited guests Aaron Betsky and Trey Trahan.
