George Baird & Timothy Hyde: “Writings on Architecture and the City”



MIT Architecture
History, Theory & Criticism of Architecture and Art

The conversation between Timothy Hyde and George Baird will focus on the collection of essays across the span of Baird’s academic career, that are included in his new publication. Regarding two of those essays, Christophe van Gerrewey of the journal OASE recently observed that “’la dimension amoureuse” and “Criticality and Its Discontents” are two articles that summarize a decade and a timeless problematic at the same time.

George Baird is the former Dean (2004-2009) of the John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design, and is a partner in the Toronto-based architecture and urban design firm Baird Sampson Neuert Architects. Prior to becoming Dean at the University of Toronto, Baird was the G. Ware Travelstead Professor of Architecture at the Graduate School of Design, Harvard University. He has published and lectured widely throughout most parts of the world.
