Sacerdote Lecture Hall, Uris Center for Education Artists Bernd and Hilla Becher focused on a single subject: the disappearing industrial architecture of Western Europe and North America that fueled the modern era. Their photographic typologies of industrial architecture can be seen as, among many other things, a memorial to places of modern industry and the monoliths it imposed on the landscape. Join scholars and writers for a discussion about interpreting these photographs in the present day and how they might be perceived in the future. Free, though advance registration is required. Please note: For free programs, we generally over-register to ensure a full house. Priority will be given to those who have registered in advance, though advance registration does not guarantee admission once the lecture hall reaches capacity.
