Research

I am an architectural historian specializing in modern French architecture at the 1925 Exposition of Modern Decorative Arts, Paris. In my dissertation, "Visions of Modernity: The Architectural Landscape of the 1925 Exposition of Decorative Arts, Paris," I examined the discourse of modern architecture as it governed the reception of various architectural styles and schools that all claimed to be "modern." In my research I continue to explore the relationship among avant-garde, Art Deco, and regionalist architecture at the exposition, and the impact of the architectural landscape on the historiography of modernism. I am also concerned with the relationship between architectural discourse and print media.
