SoA Conference - TONY VIDLER (Beatriz)
SYMPOSIUM | UTOPIA AND PSYCHOPATHOLOGY – A Symposium in Honor of Anthony Vidler
Thursday, November 7 | 6pm
Friday, November 8 | 10am to 5pm
Betts Auditorium | School of Architecture
Organized by Professors Beatriz Colomina, Spyros Papapetros, and Mark Wigley
This symposium celebrates the thinking and teaching of Anthony Vidler around the first anniversary of his death. Beginning on Thursday evening, November 7, a group of speakers will offer some reflections on Tony’s teaching at Princeton across six decades in the context of a pop-up archival exhibition of his syllabi and notes. Continuing all day on Friday, November 8, another group of speakers will treasure his work–not by addressing it directly, but by continuing to think together about a couple of the major themes that obsessed him: “UTOPIA” and “PSYCHOPATHOLOGY.” The symposium is polemically anti-melancholic, honoring a great colleague by continuing the work
