A trio of current and former Woodbury School of Architecture faculty, including April Greiman, Jennifer Bonner and Barbara Bestor, FAIA, are featured as part of ART PAPERS magazine’s special architecture and design issue, In the Gutter.
Guest edited by Jennifer Bonner and guest designed by April Greiman, the issue has a special focus on Los Angeles featuring 72 pages of contributions by local writers and designers looking at the current state of architecture and design through the lens of the city’s pools, the culture that surrounds them, and the broader landscape of water and hydrology. The issue includes images and work by Barbara Bestor.
An upcoming event at The Pink Motel will feature a reading/performance by 30+ contributors — an exquis(wet) corpse — with sound accompaniment by Rose Boy, informal discussion, beverages, light refreshments, and other entertainment… all from the basin of the motel’s empty pool.
