RPI Graduate Studies Announcement

Rensselaer_Grad-Studies-Arch-Flyer-430

RPI continues in its innovative partnerships w/ artists and designers in this new poster for graduate program. In this case they have chosen Gordon Terry, an artist whose work oscillates between ” psychedelia, science fiction, modernism, the rococo, decadence, and hermetic texts”-GT. This seems appropriate considering the position we are now in and where the future of architecture lies. We are really excited to see how this program is going to grow and now with Dean Evan Douglis at the helm we are sure that they will have an impact on the world for years to come.  Below is a general mission statement and some links to more information on the program. read more
