Cityscapes: The Urban Experience from the Metropolis to the Megalopolis

Catalog description

This course focuses on the emergence of the modern city and of urban experience from the 19th to the 21st century. The city can be a space of anonymity, freedom, and loneliness, as much as a place of connection and exciting possibilities. Architecture and the organization of space produce different behaviors, types of perception, and subjectivity. Above all, the modern metropolis is spectacular, and continually offers things to see to the eye.
