Chinese-Language Tour: Design Agendas
Student educators lead interactive tours of this season’s exhibition Design Agendas: Modern Architecture in St. Louis, 1930s–1970s. With material drawn from the Saint Louis Art Museum, the Missouri Historical Society, and other collections, this exhibition situates works of modern architecture in St. Louis within the context of urban renewal and racial and spatial segregation and displacement. Using architectural drawings, models, photographs, films, and maps, Design Agendas highlights the contributions of architects, planners, artists, and activists in the civic work that shaped the design and building history of St. Louis. Through guided discussion, participants will explore these complex connections in this period of shifting architectural history.
