Summer lectures at Sci-Arc
Several summer lectures and one exhibition will take place at SCI-Arc, starting July 15 till August 5. The lectures start tomorrow with Peter Cook, a noted English architect, writer, and educator who was a founding member of Archigram in the 1960′s. Peter Cook: Hard and Soft will take place at 7pm at W. M. Keck Lecture Hall.
Two weeks later, on July 29 a special lecture will take place at the SCI-Arc Gallery. In conjunction with the Eric Owen Moss Architects, If Not Now, When? exhibition, there will be a special discussion between Eric Owen Moss and Jeffrey Kipnis.
Finally on August 5 at the Keck Lecture Hall, Anthony Vidler presents a special lecture on Schindler/Neutra. This will take place at 5pm, and will be followed by a symposium moderated by Vidler, with Hitoshi Abe, Peter Cook, Thom Mayne, Eric Owen Moss, Peter Noever, and Wolf Prix.
We’ve also like to remind you that July 24 marks the start for the L.A. in Wien / Wien in L.A. exhibition, which we’ve already featured on ArchDaily.

Man, Eric O.M. still around??!!
Everybody in the arch business should donate a dollar so this guy can retire and leave us alone!
Does anyone wanna share the photos?especially the disign?
I wonder how many times I would have to post this before AD would do anything…
Okay, so I would like to offer up what I think is a great idea to AD. Instead of just posting the Sci-Arc and Columbia Lecture series, why not have a section of the site devoted to school lectures in general. There are great programs in places other than NY and LA. With AD being a great resource for arch info in general it could become a great way to find big architects coming through you area. School lectures are often open to the public, and as such, make for a great opportunity to see some really well known architects in person. It’s too bad that the architects that travel around and speak don’t do a concert tour type of schedule. But it would certainly be possible to do something like that here where you could search by school or by person and see where they are and where they will be speaking. How many of us have been disappointed to find out after the fact that we missed a Bjarke Ingels lecture or somebody else, only because we weren’t aware of it?
Anybody else think that this is an idea worth pursuing?
