The University of Oklahoma Gibbs College of Architecture, in partnership with the OU School of Visual Arts, is pleased to announce that Alison Fisher and Craig Lee will give a public lecture as a part of the 2023 Goff Lecture Series. Fisher and Lee are curators of architecture and design at the Art Institute of Chicago and are currently organizing a major retrospective of Bruce Goff for late 2025.
In this lecture, they will share a preview of some key themes and objects driving the exhibition project. In particular, they will present their research around the rich creative practice of Goff that encompassed architecture, music, painting and his personal collections. The lecture will take place on Tuesday, Nov. 7 at 4:30 p.m. in Nielsen Hall, room 170.
This lecture is made possible with support from the OU School of Visual Arts and Gibbs College’s Bruce Goff Chair of Creative Architecture. For more information or to request accommodations, contact Angela Person (a@ou.edu) or Emily Warner (eswarner@ou.edu).
