South-Side (I & II)

Graduate

Spring South-South comprises a suite of mini courses that invite students to de-center architectural thinking, and to consider how and where knowledge about the built environment is produced. In recent years, the southern turn in architectural history and environmental humanities has brought together perspectives from post-colonial, feminist, anti-racist, indigenous, and community-engaged scholarship to trouble long-protected boundaries of what counts as legitimate, canonical, and expert knowledge. Courses in the South-South series will engage an expansive set of authors, sites, and practices that reorient methods for architectural thinking through and from its peripheries.
