This exhibition completes a multi-site presentation of World’s Fairs as a unique phenomenon in American city making. The first installation (in HGA Gallery, Rapson Hall) explored World’s Fairs as platforms for experimentation and innovation in architecture and urban planning. This installation extends that view, investigating the profound and lasting impact of these events.

Virtual Exhibition
This exhibition, originally presented at the HGA Gallery in Fall 2022, looks back at the influential life of John Carmody, founding director of the Center for Sustainable Building Research (CSBR) at the University of Minnesota. John Carmody - A Life in Sustainability celebrates his remarkable 40+ year career as an environmental activist and systems designer who brought actionable solutions to complex problems. His journey to enrich humankind's spiritual connection with Earth inspires the responsible stewardship that CSBR, and many others, continue to work on today.
