SUMMARY:Smoke and Mirrors
DESCRIPTION:Author and journalist Pallavi Aiyar will discuss her book Smoke and Mirrors\, a personal account of her years spent living and working in China. Moderated by Siddhartha Deb\, Writer in Residence at The New School Pallavi Aiyar is the Beijing-based China Bureau Chief for The Hindu group of publications. She has reported from across China for over six years. She is the winner of the 2007 Prem Bhatia Memorial Award for excellence in political reporting and analysis\, the youngest ever recipient of the prize. She was also awarded a Reuters Foundation Fellowship at Oxford in the same year. Aside from her work as a journalist\, she has taught news writing to students at the Beijing Broadcasting Institute and served as an advisor to the Confederation of Indian Industry on China-related issues. Smoke and Mirrors is a smart\, insightful book about modern China. What sets Aiyar’s work apart is that it is not written by an academic or expert\, nor is it told from either a Western or Chinese viewpoint…… she has discovered a way of bridging her native and adopted homes. As someone well acquainted with the problems of Asian development\, she easily sees past the smoke and mirrors of China’s shiny new metropolises” International Herald Tribune“

SUMMARY:Emerging Exchanges: New Architectures of India
DESCRIPTION:India’s architectural and urban landscape is being remade in unexpected and exuberant ways at this defining moment in its history. New economic growth\, proliferation of media technologies\, transnational modes of production\, as well as new state and social dynamics are presenting challenges to the entrenched traditions and extraordinary diversity of India. Modern architecture in India\, represented by the seminal practices of Balkrishna Doshi\, Charles Correa\, Raj Rewal and others have long been on a world stage\, however the present moment is marked by new ideological and ideational shifts away from early modernist positions. The Delhi/Ahmedabad axis has moved east and south to Mumbai and Bangalore\, which now includes a new generation of architects\, both Indian and international\, who are involved in a diverse range of practices and productions that are re-imagining entrenched histories of both modernities and traditions. Centrifugal and centripetal dynamics characterizes contemporary practices where many architects look to balance global and transnational imperatives as well as more situated approaches to building. The circulation of these inward and outward movements has resulted in both the glittering towers that reproduce the Special Economic Zones of Shanghai or Dubai as an enclave in a landscape of contested territories and economic disparities. At the same time\, some architects are engaged in emplaced material practices related to landscape\, siting\, local building fabrication\, and programming\, which has led to reconsidering new regionalisms and the informal sector.The Architectural League of New York\, the India China Institute and Parsons The New School for Design plan a two-day conference to probe these material economies and territorial intersections in Indian architecture today. These circuits and realignments will be examined by keynote speakers\, project presentations and interdisciplinary panels in order to present a body of emerging architectural practices\, while unraveling the forces of the larger cultural and social dynamics that these projects generate\, concentrate and disperse. \n\n\n\nDownload Full Conference Agenda
