Description: Virtual Tour
Through the UMass BRUT initiative, we are excited to host a virtual tour and conversation to discuss these questions. The event will be led by Dr. Anna Dempsey, Professor and Chair of the Department of Art Education, Art History & Media Studies. The conversation will be led by David Fixler FAIA FAPT LEED, Barbara Campagna FAIA, FAPT, LEED AP BD+C and Dr. Timothy Rohan, Architectural Historian and Professor at UMass Amherst whose research focuses on Paul Rudolph and modernism of the post-world war II era.
The tour will consist of an overview of the campus, showcasing some of its most prominent and unique features. Factors such as setting and location will also be discussed. The conversation will then further acknowledge these elements while including a segment on how we can re-imagine the campus to accommodate the current and post-pandemic world. Through this discussion, we aim to enhance and celebrate Rudolph's vision for this singular public university.
