Art and Architecture in the Public Sphere of Cities

Explore the complex interrelationship between art and architecture in the public sphere of cities, and unorthodox ways of engaging the public. Joshua Decter, director of the Master of Public Art Studies Program at USC, will moderate a panel featuring Anne Pasternak, president and artistic director of Creative Time, New York; Los Angeles–based artist Doug Aitken; and Los Angeles–based architect Peter Zellner.

This event will be presented as part of the series, “Participation and Friction: Rethinking Art and Architecture as Public Culture.” The series features conversations between contemporary artists, architects, social theorists, curators, historians and other cultural producers on how contemporary art and architecture utilize unusual methods of participation and processes of collaboration to navigate the social and political frictions of today’s urban public spheres.
