![]() L.A. in Wien / Wien in L.A.The Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc) announced L.A. in Wien / Wien in L.A, an exhibition featuring works by Hitoshi Abe, Peter Cook, Zaha Hadid, Thom Mayne, and Eric Owen Moss juxtaposed with those by R.M. Schindler and Richard Neutra that investigate the architecture of both Los Angeles and Vienna and their respective influences on one another over the last century.During the intellectual migration from Europe that occurred within the first half of the 20th century, Los Angeles became host to many who would subsequently be recognized as influential philosophers, composers, architects, and thought leaders. In particular, the Viennese architects R.M. Schindler and Richard Neutra settled in Los Angeles in the 1920s and have had a great impact on the city and its architecture. The L.A. in Wien/Wien in L.A exhibition begins with a digital presentation of photographs and drawings, entitled Schindler/Neutra: Vienna/Los Angeles 2.0, offering a brief overview tracing the architectural link between the cities when Vienna-born architects R.M. Schindler and Richard Neutra first settled in Los Angeles. The overview highlights their respective architectural innovations, while exploring the questions: What do architects from Vienna bring to Los Angeles (and vice-versa), and conversely, how does Los Angeles influence their work? event (ended) current design events more info www.sci...
