Jerzy Soltan: In Homage

This exhibit is in homage to the creative life of Jerzy Soltan, a beloved architect and teacher who educated generations of students in principles of modernist design at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design (GSD). Soltan, the Nelson Robinson Jr. Professor of Architecture and Design Emeritus died at his Cambridge home in September at age 92. After working for Le Corbusier in the 1950’s in Paris, Soltan was an enthusiastic advocate of Corbu’s design philosophy. Soltan received the Topaz Medallion of Excellence in Architectural Education in 2002. The jury called Soltan “the epitome of the inspirational educator, bringing boundless energy and architectural vision to generations of future practitioners,” many of whom are now prominent professionals as well as influential educators.

Exhibition runs February 1-24, 2006.
Open Monday - Friday from 9:00 am - 5:30 pm.
