ART 370 - Seminar in Architectural History Semester Offered: Fall
1 unit(s)
(Same as URBS 370 ) This seminar provides an in-depth overview and analysis of major projects, urban landscapes, and topics in Latin American architecture and urbanism in the twentieth century. Starting from the notion that “Latin America” is a modern construction, it examines buildings and landscapes produced in countries including Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, Mexico, Peru, and Venezuela. The courses consider key issues such as coloniality, race, gender, post-coloniality, imperialism, informality, and decoloniality. Students contribute to critical histories of modern architecture in Latin America by writing a research paper and producing a group podcast. Luisa Valle.
