Throughout time ideas of utopia have
guided artists and architects alike in their creation, invention,
and interpretation of cities and their societies. This class will
explore a variety of these utopic (and arguably dystopic) projects
and propositions through a study of the drawings, architecture,
urban planning, and photographs that have defined and documented
them. Among the works we will explore are the 60s and 70s English
architectural magazine "Archigram", the Disney developed,
pre-planned community of Celebration, Florida, and Joel Sternfeld's
2005 photo documentary project "Sweet Earth".
