Contemporary practice

On Monday, July 31, 2023, 12:00pm-1:00pm ET, the New York City-based CSU: The Consortium for Sustainable Urbanization will be hosting an online talk by Eileen Dancuart (MLA Illinois 2002) focused on Bicentennial Park, a project she completed in November 2022 in the Miraflores district of Lima, Peru.

Salcedo is the national undergraduate winner of the 2023 Fountain Scholarship, a prestigious award granted by the Council of Educators in Landscape Architecture (CELA). She received the award during a ceremony at the CELA Annual Conference in San Antonio, TX.

As Founding Director of the practice Matéricos Periféricos, Ph.D. student Ana Valderrama (MLA, Illinois, 2009) and her collaborators have received a 2022 Inclusion Award from the New York City Architecture Biennial. Their project, "Industrial District," includes a series of practices and two buildings co-constructed with the communities they serve.

In this online lecture, O’Shea will discuss recent projects by his practice, Hinterlands, that exemplify the firm’s commitment to radically rethinking the contemporary urban realm through the medium of landscape.
