Built, World
“Built, World,” on view Tuesday, June 7, through Sunday, Sept. 4, 2016, explores the relationship between contemporary visual art practices and architecture as form and discipline. The exhibition also considers the power and ideology embedded within our built environment. Special attention is given to the underlying issues of the social and political mores of our time.
