Baker-Nord flier Ponce de Leon eventThe campus community is invited to attend the 2014 Richard N. Campen Lecture in Architecture and Sculpture on Thursday, Nov. 13, at 6 p.m. in Ford Auditorium.

Using examples from her own creative practice, Monica Ponce de Leon, the Dean and Eliel Saarinen Collegiate Professor of Architecture and Urban and Regional Planning at the University of Michigan, will discuss the ever-shifting relationship between artistic production and the architectural project. At the center of the lecture she tackles pre-conceived notions about design, creativity, and the power of imagination.

The event, sponsored by the Baker-Nord Center for the Humanities, is free and open to the public. Online registration is recommended.
