Five Bay Landscapes: Curious Explorations of the Great Lakes Basin
Thursday, Jan. 11 | 4:30-5:30 p.m.
Steitz Hall 102
Karen Lutsky and Sean Burkholder will present excerpts and insights from their recently published book, Five Bay Landscapes: Curious Explorations of the Great Lakes Basin.
Both landscape architecture professors who have been working and studying the shorelines for many years, the book shares their practice of exploring and “meeting” five different bays within the basin as richly layered and complex places. Through a mix of theory, history, experiential documentation, and representational methods, the book shares their explorations of each bay; and argues for pluralistic and transcalar methods of knowledge creation in order to better design with these critical, dynamic places.
