SUMMARY:The Robert F. Kennedy Funeral Train: The People’s View from Baltimore (Virtual Lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Rein Jelle Terpstra will discuss his project to collect photographs of Kennedy’s funeral train passing through Baltimore. \nOn June 8 1968\, the Robert F Kennedy Funeral Train rode through Baltimore\, on its way to Washington D.C.\, carrying the body of Senator Robert F Kennedy. On board the train was photographer Paul Fusco\, who during the journey photographed the many bewildered mourners paying their final respects. A cross-section of American society—Black and White\, city-dwellers and country folk—all stared at the slowly passing train. \nWe hope you’ll join us to hear photographer Rein Jelle Terpstra talk about his project to search for the reverse photographic perspective: pictures and films made by the bystanders that stood along the railroad that day. Here\, the mourners do not merely play a role in someone else’s pictures\, but are the photographers and filmmakers themselves. With their cameras\, they gazed back at the train and recorded it in their own fashion. On his research trips\, Terpstra visited almost all of the places that the funeral train passed through in an effort to track down people who took photographs of the train passing. This project is entirely based on memories\, snapshots\, home movies\, and sound\, recorded by bystanders standing along the tracks that day. \nThe project was on show at the Museum of Modern Art\, San Francisco\, in Les Rencontres D’Arles (France 2018)\, the International Center of Photography (New York City 2018) and the Nederlands Fotomuseum\, Rotterdam (2019). \n  \nAbout the Speaker \nRein Jelle Terpstra teaches fine arts and photography at Minerva Art Academy\, Groningen (NL). After a residency at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten (Amsterdam)\, he began investigating the relationships between perception\, memory and history by making slideshow installations and books. His work is held in various collections\, including the collection of the SFMOMA (San Francisco)\, MoMA Library (New York)\, EYE Film Museum (Amsterdam)\, Nederlands Fotomuseum (Rotterdam)\, The Royal Museum of Arts (Brussels)\, Yale University Library (New Haven)\, and the Getty Research Institute (Los Angeles). During the spring of 2017\, Terpstra undertook a Smithsonian Artist Research Fellowship in Washington\, D.C. to work on the subject of this lecture. \n\nAbout this Event \n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com. If you do not contact us at least 1 hour prior to the start of the program\, we cannot guarantee admittance. \nThe Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage present the Virtual Histories Series: 30 minute live virtual tours and presentations focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation and history. Hosted every Friday at 1:00 pm EST. \nTickets are donation based. We encourage you to give what you can to support BAF and Baltimore Heritage.

SUMMARY:Designing the AVAM – Winner of Baltimore Architecture Madness
DESCRIPTION:AVAM Founder and Director Rebecca Hoffberger\, and architects Rebecca Swanston and Diane Cho celebrate the design of this Baltimore treasure! \nThe American Visionary Art Museum (AVAM) was crowned winner of BAF’s Architecture Madness Tournament\, which included 64 exceptional Baltimore buildings built between 1870 and today\, hosted in celebration of AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary.We’ll be joined by AVAM founder and director Rebecca Hoffberger and architects Diane Cho and Rebecca Swanston to celebrate and reflect upon the design of Baltimore’s most beloved building of the past 150 years. \n\n\n\n\nCompleted in 1995\, AVAM is a brilliant example of sculptural expression. Architect Rebecca Swanston\, FAIA and designer Alex Castro incorporated the curving Trolley Works building and enlarged it with an addition that echoes its curves and creates a strong sense of motion. Its playful\, eye-catching facade\, created by youth in the Maryland Department of Juvenile Services as a way to provide them with tangible skills and personal development\, was an echoing sentiment from Rebecca Alban Hoffberger\, Founder/Director and Primary Curator of AVAM that “social justice is life’s highest performance art”. The shimmering and whimsy exterior mirrors the artworks found inside by self-taught individuals that make AVAM one of the city’s most beloved institutions. Architect Diane Cho\, AIA of Cho Benn Holback + Associates (today Quinn Evans) led the 2004 expansion of the museum transforming an old whiskey barrel warehouse into AVAM’s Jim Rouse Visionary Center. Both projects are stellar examples of adaptive use – the creative repurposing of historic buildings. \nWhen asked to describe why they voted the way they did\, Architecture Madness voters emphasized how AVAM’s architecture embodies the museum’s spirit. As one voter put it\, “It feels alive. It feels like a building that embraces all people and inspires creativity and a sense of wonder.” \nAbout this Event\n\n\nThis program is hosted on Zoom. Upon registering you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com.

SUMMARY:Morgan State University: National Treasure and Model for Preservation (Virtual Talk)
DESCRIPTION:On its five-year anniversary as a designated National Treasure\, we will hear about the University’s stewardship of its historic buildings. \nIn May 2016\, the nation’s leading preservation organization\, the National Trust for Historic Preservation\, designated Morgan State University a National Treasure. The designation served to recognize the University’s significance as an HBCU (Historically Black College and University) and as a compelling example of the challenges that colleges across the country face in stewarding their historic buildings while redeveloping their historic campuses. \nFounded in 1867 as one of the nation’s earliest institutions to offer post-secondary education for African Americans and the largest in the state of Maryland\, Morgan State University’s urban campus has an impressive collection of historic buildings. The University’s varied built landscape features 20 contributing structures—ranging from Classical and Italianate to Modern and Brutalist—eligible for listing on the National Register. Buildings on the campus were designed by pioneering and celebrated black architects such as Albert Cassell\, Hilyard Robinson\, Louis Fry\, and Leon Bridges. In addition\, the University is home to one of six HBCU accredited architecture programs and the only one accredited in historic preservation. \nIn its effort towards preserving the rich cultural legacy of HBCUs\, the National Trust joined forces with the University to envision a forward-thinking stewardship strategy for preserving HBCU campuses. The partnership aimed at developing a campus heritage preservation plan for Morgan State University – a critical tool to inform campus master planning – that could be applied at other HBCUs across the country. \nOn its five-year anniversary as a designated National Treasure\, we will hear about the University’s progress to create a preservation roadmap that stewards the many historic buildings on campus\, while planning wisely for the university’s long-term\, sustainable future. \nAbout the Presenter: \nDale Glenwood Green is a descendant of Reverend Samuel Green\, Sr. (a Visionary Founder of Morgan State University)\, Morgan Alumnus (a inaugural student of the Morgan undergraduate architecture program)\, and Professor of Architecture and Lead Faculty for Historic Preservation at Morgan State University School of Architecture and Planning. He has been teaching and leading research on Morgan’s campus heritage since he joined the faculty in 2008. He along with his faculty colleagues and students have collaborated with the University and the National Trust for Historic Preservation on preserving the campus and individually listing the University Memorial Chapel on the National Register of Historic Places. He has been leading the Preservation in Practice summer program with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation\, National Parks Service and the National Trust for Historic Preservation. \n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nIn this Virtual Histories Series\, the Baltimore Architecture Foundation (BAF) and Baltimore Heritage host weekly 30-minute lunchtime live presentations on Zoom focusing on Baltimore architecture\, preservation\, and history. Upon registering\, you will receive an email confirmation and a Zoom link. If you do not receive a link\, please contact ndennies@aiabalt.com at least 1-hour prior to the start of the program or cannot guarantee admittance. \nReservations are donation-based. We encourage you to give what you can to support BAF and Baltimore Heritage. Your support helps us make up for lost tour and program revenue from COVID-19 and create more virtual programs like this. This presentation is also co-hosted by Morgan State University and the Baltimore Chapter of the National Organization of Minority Architects.
