What is it, to learn architecture? In a tribute to pioneering architect and educator, John Hejduk, Dean Sarah Whiting will interview Spanish architect Rafael Moneo about architectural pedagogy past, present, and future. Together, they will take up contemporary questions, examining shifts that have taken place in architectural pedagogy’s engagement of history, theory, and technology. In attempting to answer these questions, they will explore new experiments in the relationship between practice and teaching, including examples from Moneo’s own experiences. With both traditional models and contemporary departures in mind, Moneo and Whiting will speculate on future possibilities for architectural education.
