rt,刚从同学那里听来的
虽然不太清楚是GSD打算加入Landscape Urbanism大军了还是看上了海母的名气,作为海母的铁杆粉丝我还是很高兴的。可喜可贺。
Dear Students, Faculty, and Staff of the Graduate School of Design,
Please join me tomorrow night, May 6 at 6:00 pm in Gund Hall # 110 (The Pit) to celebrate this exciting news.
Charles Waldheim Appointed Professor of Landscape Architecture and Chair of the Department of Landscape Architecture
It gives me great pleasure to announce the appointment of Charles Waldheim as Professor of Landscape Architecture without limit of time and also as Chair of the Department of Landscape Architecture, starting July 2009. I very much look forward to working with Charles and the Landscape faculty in defining the future direction of the department, and in confronting the current challenges and opportunities facing those who teach and practice in the field of Landscape Architecture.
Waldheim’s research focuses on landscape architecture in relation to contemporary urbanism. He coined the term “landscape urbanism” to describe emerging landscape design practices in the context of North American urbanism. He has written extensively on the topic and edited The Landscape Urbanism Reader (Princeton Architectural Press, 2006). Citing the city of Detroit as the most legible example of urban industrial economy in North America, Waldheim is editor of CASE: Lafayette Park Detroit (Prestel / Harvard Design School, 2004) and co-editor, with Jason Young and Georgia Daskalakis, of Stalking Detroit (Barcelona: ACTAR, 2001). On the history and future of Chicago urbanism, he is author of Constructed Ground (University of Illinois Press, 2001) and co-editor, with Katerina Ruedi Ray, of Chicago Architecture and Urbanism: Histories, Revisions, Alternatives (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2005). He is currently writing the first book-length history of Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport, entitled Chicago O’Hare: A Natural and Cultural History (Chicago: University of Chicago Press). His writing has also appeared in Landscape Journal, Topos, Log, Praxis, 306090, Canadian Architect, Dimensions, and Landscape Architecture Magazine.
Currently, Waldheim is Associate Professor and Director of the Landscape Architecture program at the University of Toronto. He has lectured on landscape and contemporary urbanism across North America, Europe, and Australasia. He has taught as a visiting faculty member at Harvard University, the University of Michigan, the University of Pennsylvania, and Rice University. He is an honorary member of the Ontario Association of Landscape Architects, and was the 2006 recipient of the Rome Prize Fellowship in Landscape Architecture at the American Academy in Rome.
Please join me in warmly welcoming Charles to both of these important appointments in the senior ranks of the GSD faculty.
With Best Regards,
Mohsen Mostafavi
