About the exhibition:
Denise Scott Brown (Zambia, 1931) is one of the most significant architects of the second half of the 20th century. After graduating in Johannesburg, she completed her studies in London and Philadelphia, where she met Robert Venturi (1925–2018), with whom she shared her life and professional career. One of her most influential works is Learning from Las Vegas (1972), a critical essay developed alongside Venturi and Steven Izenour that incorporates American popular visual culture and automobile travel into architectural design.
