Barnard Department of Architecture Student Exhibition on Display in Barnard Hall, May 3 - 24

New York, N.Y., May 13, 2002—The annual spring student exhibition of the Barnard Architecture department is on display on the third floor of Barnard Hall. This year’s exhibition includes work from all class levels and by both architecture majors and non-majors. The work of the seniors can be viewed in the third floor hallway.

"We have seven undergraduates who applied for graduate programs and, in total, they were accepted at 17 schools. The list of programs that accepted them is impressive: Harvard, Columbia, Yale, Princeton, MIT, Berkeley, Penn, and many others," said Karen Fairbanks, Director of Barnard and Columbia Architecture, Director of Undergraduate Studies in Architecture at Barnard and Associate Professor of Practice in Architecture. "This show demonstrates the creative energy of the architectural program at Barnard."

Nearly 100 students are exhibiting their work. The exhibition consists of drawings and models from architecture design studio majors. There is also work from non-majors who are part of a program that was launched two years ago and from students enrolled in a new course in digital photography, which takes advantage of the new digital architecture computer lab at Barnard. Senior work will be exhibited through the graduation.
