PHANTOM. Mies as Rendered Society is a provocative site-specific intervention developed by Andrés Jaque for the Ludwig Mies van der Rohe–designed Barcelona Pavilion in 2012 and recently reconceived and acquired by the Art Institute of Chicago.
This installation aims to unravel the myth of Mies van der Rohe as a solitary genius. Fundació Mies commissioned Andrés Jaque in 2012 to create a site-specific intervention in Mies’s most famous building, the Barcelona Pavilion. The original Pavilion of 1929 was reconstructed in 1986 with the fundamental addition of a basement. Jaque’s installation focused on this lower level, which was an overlooked yet significant part of the building, introducing new questions for contemporary scholarship about Mies.

The Center for Architecture is now accepting for applications for the 2019 Stewardson Keefe LeBrun Travel Grant. The grant provides single or multiple awards of up to $25,000 for early to mid-level architects who wish to further their personal and professional development through travel. Originally conceived as a fund to provide architects with the experience of a European Grand Tour, recipients now explore unique travel research topics around the world. Recent topics include the study of architecture in Siberia, post-revolutionary architecture in Cuba, and a survey of the art of topiary in Europe and the United States, among many others. The Stewardson Keefe LeBrun Travel Grant focuses on self-directed education through travel. Itineraries should be focused on a selected topic of interest to the individual, rather than a part of a larger humanitarian or institutional endeavor.
