MILWAUKEE _ 51ÁÔÆæ’s School of Architecture and Urban Planning is hosting the traveling exhibition \u201cNow What?! Advocacy, Activism & Alliances in American Architecture since 1968,\u201d which examines the history of social and political movements through architecture.<\/p>\n

The exhibit opened at the School of Architecture and Urban Planning (SARUP) on Feb. 4 following previous stops in Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, Montreal, New York and San Francisco, as well as abroad in Stockholm. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Preservation Fund and the law firm Reinhart Boerner Van Deuren, the\u00a0“Now What?!” exhibit<\/a>\u00a0will be on display in the gallery on the first floor of the SARUP building\u00a0through April 29.<\/p>\n

“People who make design their profession often have a calling towards social justice, which has been expressed in many activist efforts. However, until now there hasn\u2019t been a comprehensive study of these progressive movements,\u201d said Lori Brown, president and founder of\u00a0ArchiteXX<\/a>. She is co-curator of the exhibit.<\/p>\n

\u201cParticularly, in light of the activism we’ve seen in the last two years, it\u2019s important to commemorate this half-century of advocacy and let today’s viewers learn about the often forgotten narratives of activist designers who have come before them,\u201d Brown said.<\/p>\n

The civil rights, LGBTQ and women\u2019s movements impacted every facet of U.S. society, including architecture and design. “Now What?!” tells the largely unknown history of how architects and designers have responded to the major social movements of the late 20th century until today. The exhibition offers an in-depth look at diversity and activism in the design professions since 1968 while crafting a space for public debate and dialogue.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are at a critical moment in the discipline and profession of architecture, where the influence of past actions can help chart a course forward for our students. Educating over 600 students in architecture and with roots in community engagement, the School of Architecture and Urban Planning is a perfect place to host this historic exhibit,\u201d said Mo Zell, the school\u2019s senior associate dean.<\/p>\n

\u201c’Now What?!’ not only provides a space for reflection about engagement with the community but also action,\u201d Zell added. \u201cIt prompts our students to ask these questions: \u2018What’s next? How will I get involved? How can I be an agent of change?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

The exhibit is on view at the SARUP Gallery (2131 E. Hartford Avenue, Room 146), Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Additional information can be found at\u00a0https:\/\/uwm.edu\/sarup\/now-what-exhibition-2022\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n
