Please join us for a special talk and tour of an internationally traveling exhibition of one of Australia’s most globally influential architects. Trained at the University of Sydney and at Harvard’s Graduate School of Design (’58), John Andrews (1933-2022) was an architect with an immensely successful architecture practice which included projects across Canada, USA, and Australia. On the Harvard campus – he is perhaps most well known as being the architect of George Gund Hall, which is home to the Graduate School of Design and of the iconic ‘trays’.
The talk and tour will be held by co-curator Kevin Liu (MDes ’21), a Sydney based architect and urban designer who has studied John Andrews’s career extensively and worked alongside with Professor and co-curator Paul Walker from the University of Melbourne. The exhibition opens on the 27th of March and will continue through until the 24th of May. The tour will be followed by casual drinks at the Rose Hotel in Chippendale. Address: 148 City Road, Darlington Sydney, NSW
John Andrews: Architect of Uncommon Sense was first exhibited October 28-December 22, 2022, at the Graduate School of Design, Harvard University, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The curators would like to thank the GSD for their ongoing support for this exhibition.
