We're still not done with the
November Calendar of Architectural Events and, even with the holiday, we'rve already got over three dozen great items. The
Instituto Cervantes kicks off a three lecture series
Restoring, Regenerating, Rethinking: The Urban Transformation of Madrid, Barcelona, & Bilbao, with a November 18th lecture by
Ibon Areso,
Bilbao’s strategic evolution.
From the industrial to the post-industrial city, to be presented in Spanish with simultaneous English translation
. The series is curated by the tireless
Iker Gil of
MAS Studio, whose Fall issue,
Information, of the excellent - and free - periodical,
MAS Context is now
available for download.
The 18th is turning out to be one of those nightmare scheduling logjams that Chicago is prone to. All on the same evening, there's a just announced lecture by
Eric Own Moss for the
Architecture and Design Society of the Art Institute of Chicago,
Roger Frechette talking about the
PositivEnergy Practice of Smith+Gill architects for AIA Chicago, landscape architect
Nelson Byrd Woltz lecturing on
Stewardship and Design in the Urban and Agrian Landscape at
Crown Hall, IIT, and architect
Dirk Denision and chef
Tony Mantuano talking about their new
Terzo Piano at the Art Institute's
Modern Wing while feeding you samples from the menu.
On Tuesday the 30th,
AIA Chicago will celebrate with
Ward Miller and
John Vinci the publication of one of the most essential and stunning books of the year,
The Complete Architecture of Adler & Sullivan. At AIA Chicago lunchtime on the 9th,
Peter Kindel of
Smith+Gill will be discussing their firms
Decarbonization Plan for the Central Loop. And on
Thanksgiving eve, November 24th,
leading Chicago structural engineers will discuss the
tensile and aerodynamic properties of the skeletons of
turkeys, both before and after cooking. Following the discussion, surviving turkeys will get to dress up as pilgrims and shoot randomly at spectators.
