affiche lezing Thomas Rau Cooper Union New York
Op 2 februari 2011 gaf Thomas Rau een lezing in de ‘Great Hall’ van the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art in New York. Op uitnodiging van het Cooper Union Institute for Sustainable Design sprak hij over zijn visie op ‘oneplanetarchitecture’ en lichtte deze toe aan de hand van enkele recent door RAU opgeleverde projecten. Moderator van de avond was Anna Dyson, director of CASE, Center for Architecture Science and Ecology. De lezing werd mede ondersteund door de AIA New York en de Mondriaan Stichting.

i came to the lecture as a part of an assignment for my intro. to urban design course at the pratt institue in brooklyn [city planning graduate student]. i was so amazed by the progressive [radical] paradigm and thought process the firm of RAU has taken on. the designs were stunning but more so is the overall technique and desire to do better that Rau spoke of. the lecture gave hope – looking forward to an effective future.
Thank you for the compliment. We hope you will use this inspiration to drive your own actions. The future is (also) in your hands. Good luck with your studies.
