Saturday, September 8, 2018 from 6:30-10pm the A+D Museum will unveil its second out of The Assembly. The Assembly is a new tradition; it is a gathering. This approach to exhibition openings is an expression of the museum's mission to join together a diverse group in celebration of different disciplines of design and points of view. In this outing the museum will be celebrating 5 new exhibits being opened to the public.

Wireframes: The Visualization of Architecture

Wireframes is the first exhibit to track the art of architectural visualization since its inception. The exhibit presents a series of narratives, snapshots from the discipline's vibrant history. Through illustrations, projections, and interactive technologies the visitor is immersed in the story of architectural visualization. With over 30 artists participating, Wireframes exhibits the infinite possibilities for creative visual communication. Artists include Kilograph, Hayes Davidson, dBox, Studio AMD, Neoscape, Mir, Luxigon, Alex Roman, Dennis Allain and architect-turned-director, Joseph Kosinski. 

Frayed by Rachael McCall

Rachael McCall promises an alluring distraction from the banality of hard lines and boxes with Architecture that adds fuzz, friction, and distortion. Her mixed-media installation at A+D picks apart monumentality using moments of distortion and agitation. Her work challenges refined edges, creating a tactile and fleshy experience.

The CGarchitect Architectural 3D Awards

Presented in conversation with Wireframes, this exhibit presents the frontline in architectural visualization. These works have been selected from thousands of submissions as the most outstanding works created between 2017 and 2018. The prizes are awarded in four categories: Film/Animation, Image, Interactive, and Student.

Functional Models by Medium Office

Medium Office makes a lot of models. Usually they are smaller than the things they attempt to represent. Usually they don’t lead to anything else and they stop being scaled representations and turn into actual-size objects.

Functional Models presents a series of these actual-size objects for use in the home. They aren’t made for anything in particular, so use them for whatever they seem good for. 

And don't forget to stop by Archinect Outpost, our retail initiative featuring a collection of small-run, independently published architecture and design publications.

The Assembly is free to students and members.
