The Windgate Center of Art + Design\, the result of a $20.3MN gift from the Windgate Charitable Foundation\, is physically divided into two distinct architectural forms based on the distinctly unique use of the spaces. Both forms are connected and share common utilities and circulation patterns. The studio arts portion of the building is a 3-story structural steel framed building that houses classrooms\, galleries\, a lecture hall\, departmental administration suite\, and permanent collection storage that make up the visual arts program. The applied design area of the building is a single-story high-bay industrial-style space that lends itself to three dimensional forms of art. \nThe Windgate Center of Art + Design building is designed to have a strong community presence to help strengthen the various community partnerships that have been forged over the years. Access for gallery shows\, art festivals and other events is an important component in the building design.

He is former rector of the Institute of Design in Helsinki\, Finland\, dean of the faculty of architecture at the Helsinki University of Technology\, and director of the Museum of Finnish Architecture\, Helsinki. \nHe is this semester’s E. Fay Jones Distinguished Visiting Professor in the Fay Jones School. \nIn his lecture\, titled “Architecture as Experience – Existential Meaning of Architecture\,” Pallasmaa will discuss how the experiences of the world and architecture are fundamentally tactile\, embodied and existential. One’s most important architectural sense may well prove to be the existential sense of being and self. \nPallasmaa will look at how architectural theory\, education and practice have regarded architecture as formal\, visually aestheticized material structures and spaces. In 1934\, John Dewey argued that art and architecture are constituted in human experience\, not in the physical object. The phenomenological view is now shifting the emphasis to the experience and the complex interactions of perception\, memory\, imagination\, emotion and identification. \nAt the same time\, the interest is turning from form and geometry to formless and immaterial “quasi-things\,” such as atmosphere\, feeling\, resonance and attunement. The emphasis on experience is also questioning the hegemony of the focused vision and pointing at the central significance of the embracing and omnidirectional senses. \nPallasmaa has had visiting professor positions in a number of U.S. universities\, and he has lectured and conducted workshops at numerous universities in Europe\, Africa\, Asia and Australia\, and in North\, Central and South America. He has received a number of prizes and awards for his architecture and writings in Finland and abroad. He is an Honorary Fellow of the American Institute of Architects\, an Honorary Member of the Royal Institute of British Architects and a member of the Finnish Association of Architects. \nThis is also the Warren Segraves Lecture\, sponsored by Modus Studio. \nThe school is pursuing continuing education credits for this lecture through the American Institute of Architects. \nThe public is invited to attend. Admission is free\, with limited seating. \nFor more information\, contact 479-575-4704 or fayjones.uark.edu. \nCONTACTS\nShawnya Meyers\, digital media specialist\nFay Jones School of Architecture and Design\n479-575-4744\, slmeyers@uark.edu \nMichelle Parks\, director of communications\nFay Jones School of Architecture and Design\n479-575-4704\, mparks17@uark.edu URL:https://www.aiaar.org/event/architect-author-juhani-pallasmaa-to-present-architecture-as-experience-lecture-on-april-16th/ LOCATION:Fay Jones School of Architecture + Design\, Fayetteville \, AR CATEGORIES:Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design Lecture ORGANIZER;CN="Fay%20Jones%20School%20of%20Architecture%20and%20Design":MAILTO:mpurvis@uark.edu GEO:36.0625795;-94.1574263 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20180417T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20180417T130000 DTSTAMP:20260921T200800 CREATED:20180406T145119Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180406T145119Z UID:8789-1523966400-1523970000@www.aiaar.org SUMMARY:NW Section: Lunch & Learn - ATG DESCRIPTION:Please join us Tuesday\, April 17th 12-1pm in Springdale for the ATG – nwaAIA Lunch and Learn.
