From Vernacular to Classical: The Perpetual Modernity of Palladio

On June 10-12, 2011 the School of Architecture will host two exhibits and a conference ("From Vernacular to Classical: The Perpetual Modernity of Palladio"). One exhibit will be the Royal Institute of British Architects' (RIBA) traveling exhibit, "Palladio's Legacy: A Transatlantic Journey," and the other will be "New Palladians: Modernity and Sustainability in the 21st Century Architecture." The conference will address the synergies and dialectics across vernacular and classical architecture and discuss their relevance in a broader Palladian tradition in the 21st Century.
