See above or on YouTube.\n\n \;\n\nPlease join us for the First Ann ual Spitzer Alumni Lecture\, part of our Spring Lecture Series\, titled "M elting into Air"\, featuring Iman Ansari (B Arch '08).⁠\n\nThis lecture is part of the 2022 Spring Sciame Lecture Series\, themed “Radical Black Space.”\n⁠\nAll lectures will be presented via Zoom and held on Thurs days at 6pm NYC time. ⁠\n\n \;\nMelting into Air\nArchitecture is th e domain of interactions: the disciplinary exchange of knowledge and exper tise\, the technical intervention of tools and techniques of practice\, an d even the physical interplay of objects\, bodies\, and particles in space . Beyond a reliance on form and object-making practices\, Iman Ansari’s work considers architecture as a framework for those epistemological\, soc io-technical\, and material interactions. In this lecture\, Ansari will pr ovide an overview of his research\, teaching and practice\, and how his wo rk developed through navigating various disciplinary issues\, modes of pra ctice\, and methods of research and scholarship.\nSuggested Reading: Natur e Versus Denture\n\nSPEAKER\nIman Ansari\n\nIman Ansari is an architectur al historian\, designer\, and educator.

His office has worked as a consultant for NA SA JPL and is currently a design partner of Hyperloop Transportation Techn ologies. His work has been published widely and exhibited at international venues including the Venice Architecture Biennale\, the MoMA PS1\, the Ha mmer Museum\, and the A+D Museum.\n\nAnsari's research examines the intert wined relationship between architecture and medicine in the production of scientific knowledge and professional expertise in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. He has contributed to multiple books and edited volumes on architectural history and theory\, landscape architecture and u rbanism. His writings have appeared in Architectural Review\, Architectu ral Theory Review\, Architect’s Newspaper\, Cabinet\, Journal for the Society of Architectural Historians\, Log\, Metropolis\, Room One Thou sand and Places Journal\, among others.\n\nPrior to joining OSU Knowlto n School of Architecture\, Ansari taught at various institutions including USC School of Architecture\, UNLV School of Architecture\, UCLA Architect ure and Urban Design\, and CCNY Spitzer School of Architecture.

The Movement for Black Lives demands that Americans from all walks of l ife confront racism and its sordid impact on constructed environments\, an d understand the rich\, vital tradition of Black resistance\, innovation\, and creativity. Speakers will touch on many questions: How do the places and things made by African Americans disrupt the racial status quo in the United States? How is difference celebrated? How is equity imagined and ac hieved? What constitutes anti-racist spatial practice? Radical Black Space shows that the Black radical tradition is alive in art and architecture\, and that having a handle on Black history is essential to understanding t he present and shaping the future. Join us to find revolution in the every day and to recognize the extraordinary places and objects that Black Ameri cans make and the stories they tell about themselves. Radical Black Space is convened by Marta Gutman and Jerome Haferd.\nSciame Lecture Series with additional funding provided by the Bernard &\; Anne Spitzer School of Architecture Fund.
