Architect/Artist Creative Collaborations: An Evening with Mark Sexton
University Club, 76 East Monroe Street, Chicago
Co-founder of the Chicago-based firm Krueck + Sexton Architects, Mark Sexton, FAIA, is the 2018 speaker for the Frank Lloyd Wright Trust’s annual program, Thinking Into the Future: The Robie House Series on Architecture, Design, and Ideas.
Mark will present on nearly forty years of the firm’s iconic architecture, the significance of art in the firm’s projects, and their collaborations with artists like Jaume Plensa and Ursula Von Rydingsvard. As the influence of new materials, fabrication practices, and technologies shape the future of architecture, Mark will consider how Krueck + Sexton will continue to push the boundaries of design, and what role art and its inspiration will play in the future of the firm’s work.
