The American Academy of Arts and Letters has awarded three Cornell alumni with architecture, fiction and music awards for 2019. With the intention of sustaining literature, music and fine arts, the academy honors over 70 people who have dedicated their life craft to sustaining those very components.
In early April, the Cornell fine art department’s Tjaden Hall will welcome the community to its galleries for an exhibition led entirely by undergraduate art students. This is the first year the show will be held.
The first College of Architecture Day — as it was originally called — was held on St. Patrick’s Day in 1901.
A$AP Ferg and A$AP Twelvyy will perform at Cornell’s Barton Hall tonight.
A$AP Twelvy will be the opening act for A$AP Ferg at Barton Hall on March 24.
After 122 years, the College of Architecture, Art and Planning’s first female dean assumed her position on New Year’s Day. Dean J. Meejin Yoon ’94 is expected to serve a five-year term.
The title of the exhibition refers to the commodification of the female body in advertising, a theme that threads through the collection’s three paintings and one poem.
J. Meejin Yoon ’94 will become the next dean of Cornell’s College of Architecture, Art, and Planning, making her the first female dean in the school’s 122-year history.
A Cornell team, chosen out of 130 teams from 60 universities in the U.S. and Canada, was awarded the top prize of $50,000 in the annual 2018 Urban Land Institute Gerald D. Hines student competition on April 5.
Before entering the space, it is as if the exhibit still has yet to be curated. A space that is normally bursting with artwork appears startlingly bare to the passing gaze from the exhibit’s periphery. Yet examination is almost always a generative process of exposure and uncovering — in terms of both the viewer as well as the viewed. The exhibit in question, Estudios de Tensión, meaning “studies of tension,” is a study of the relational and symbolic interactions that shape and constitute the world. A product of the artist Nicolás Robbio, the works can be found in the John Hartell Gallery in Sibley Hall until April 19.
