In his more than six–decade career, architect Bruce Goff designed over 500 projects and completed about 150 buildings. His creative life and daring body of work continue to inspire contemporary architects.

Join Bruce Goff: Material Worlds co-curators Alison Fisher and Craig Lee as they talk to leading architects from the firms New Affiliates and Norman Kelley to explore how Goff’s life and work informs their practice today.

This discussion features two architects from each firm—Ivi Diamantopoulou and Jaffer Kolb of New York-based New Affiliates, who designed the Goff exhibition, and Thomas Kelley and Carrie Norman of Norman Kelley, based in Chicago and Cambridge, Massachusetts. Both firms have launched their own explorations of Bruce Goff’s work in recent years to produce new projects and pedagogical ideas.

This program is made possible by the R. Solomon Lectureship Fund.
