Mar 7, 2017 -- Elizabeth Diller and her studio Diller Scofidio + Renfro established an identity through independent, theoretical, and self-generated projects before coming to international prominence with two of the most important planning initiatives in New York: the High Line and the redesign of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts campus. Hear her thoughts on the impact of architecture and how it can be used to challenge perceptions of civic space and catalyze change when she joins our Day 1 keynote, Anticipate Need: Design That Cares.

 

Elizabeth Diller and Ricardo Scofidio were the first in the field of architecture to receive the "genius" award from the MacArthur Foundation. She is a Professor of Architecture at Princeton University and is a recipient of the Smithsonian Institution's National Design Award, the Centennial Medal from the American Academy in Rome, and the Brunner Prize from the American Academy of the Arts and Letters.

 

In her dynamic keynote presentation, she'll share insights from her extraordinary career that you can take back to your own practice.
