Description

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to hear Reed Kroloff discuss the global influence of French architecture. Kroloff will present the work of ten contemporary French architects, both well-established and emerging, who are shaping contemporary architectural discourse globally. Special highlights will include… 

  • French architects, Jean Nouvel & Christian de Portzamparc
  • Primary School For Sciences And Biodiversity in Boulogne-Billancourt / Chartier Dalix Architectes
  • FRAC Dunkurque/Lacaton and Vassal
  • Charles Aznavour Conservatoire of Music, Drama and Dance in Montigny-le-Bretonneux/​Dominique Coulon.

This is a lecture not to be missed by professionals and francophiles alike!

Reed Kroloff is Dean of the College of Architecture at Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT). In his career, Kroloff also has managed top design programs, edited the architectural profession’s leading publication, spoken at gatherings such as TED and the Aspen Design Conference, and advised architects and clients on some of the most significant projects of the last 20 years, leading the New York Times to describe him as “the man with the list at architecture’s party.”

All audience members over 21 years of age are invited to the post-lecture reception for a complimentary glass of wine in the Alliance salon. 

Doors open at 6:15 PM

*Entrée Libre: free entry for students with ID
