28. January – 24. May 2026 | Exhibition | Bard Graduate Center Gallery,18 West 86th Street, 10024 NewYork.
This installation presents a virtual reconstruction of the Grande Salle of La Vedette, the home of French architect EugèneEmmanuel Viollet-le-Duc (1814–1879) in Lausanne, Switzerland. The reconstruction combines digital technologies with hand drawing and original archival materials to examine the relations between landscape, geology, architecture, and ethnography in the room’s historical interior and in relation to the architect’s life and work at the time.
Curators: Barry Bergdoll (Meyer Schapiro Professor of Art History in the Department of Art History and Archaeology at Columbia University) and Martin Bressani (William MacDonald Professor at the Peter guo-hua Fu School of Architecture at McGill University)
