EDAD3X5 Berlin: Cutting-edge Contemporary Architecture and Public Art 3 cr.

This elective studio will lead students on a ten day study tour of Berlin, the capital of Germany, and provide opportunity for cross-disciplinary, collaborative, project-based learning. Study emphasis will be placed on recent developments in architecture and public art following the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. The educational theme will particularly stress sustainable architecture and design, because there is substantial new development that showcases best practices, and the most advanced work in sustainability is occurring in Europe. The Berlin program will consist of three main components: 1) visit and study important sites of contemporary architecture, public art, and planning; 2) meet with professionals in the fields of public art and architecture; and 3) create a hands-on, interdisciplinary, collaborative art project.
