CoA 2023 Fall Lecture Series

For our opening this fall, we welcome Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, acclaimed Japanese architects and co-founders of SANAA. Sejima is a trailblazer for women in architecture. She was awarded the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2010—the second woman to win the award—alongside Ryue Nishizawa. They will join us here at S. R. Crown Hall at 5 p.m. this Friday, August 25.

SANAA’s United States projects, known for being fluid, transparent, and intertwined with nature, include the Glass Pavilion for the Toledo Museum of Art in Ohio and the New Museum of Contemporary Art in New York City. Sejima was awarded the 2023 Jane Drew Prize, named after the female pioneering modernist and presented by the W Programme. We could not be more delighted to have them here with us as we begin our lecture series for the fall.

This event is open to the public and fully in person. We hope to see many of you this week as we open our lecture series.
