Iñaki Ábalos – Fall Lecture Series 2015

Tonight our guest lecturer Iñaki Ábalos, invited as part of the Fall Lecture Series 2015, inspired the audience with his lecture: Engine, Monsters, Books and Seven Works.

Iñaki Ábalos is founder and director of Abalos+Sentkiewicz arquitectos. He currently is Professor in Residence and Chair of the Department of Architecture at the Graduate School of Design, Harvard University, and Chaired Professor at ETSAM, UPM. He previously was Founder and Director of Abalos & Herreros (1984-2006) and has taught in other prestigious university centers such as the Architectural Association, EPFL and Columbia, Cornell and Princeton Universities, combining academic, professional, and research activity. The developed work stands out for proposing an original synthesis of technical rigor, formal imagination and discipline integration between architecture, environment and landscape.

Ábalos+Sentkiewicz (AS+) is an international architecture office settled in Madrid, Cambridge and Shanghai, directed by Iñaki Ábalos and Renata Sentkiewicz. AS+ projects are internationally recognized and have been subject of monographic and collective exhibitions in prestigious centers such as Architectural Association-London, Pavillon de l’Arsenale-Paris, MoMA-NYC and the Venice Biennale. AS+ professional and theoretical work has won multiple awards and been featured in leading international publications and books. Critic William Curtis has chosen one work of the Firm, the Pavilion in the Retiro Park, as one of the three best works built in Spain during the last 30 years.
