New Scholarship on Race and Modern Architecture

Summer 2020 - Prof. Uddin has published work in Race and Modern Architecture: A Critical History from the Enlightenment to the Present (University of Pittsburgh Press, 2020). This edited collection shines a spotlight on constructions of race and their impact on architecture and theory across various global contexts since the 18th century. Uddin's essay considers African American artist Noah Purifoy's sculptural response to the racial protocols of LA modernism in the wake of the 1965 Watts uprising.
