Paul R. Williams in Southern California and Nevada with Janna Ireland Philosophy of Design Series Artist Janna Ireland will discuss her project on the work of legendary Los-Angeles-based architect Paul Revere Williams (1894-1980). Ireland spent 7 years photographing Williams' projects in Southern California and across Nevada. Williams was the first Black member of the American Institute of Architects. For over 50 years, Williams worked to transform the world (and, in particular, the City of Los Angeles) through a wide range of projects, which included private family homes, hospitals, hotels, department store wings, churches, and funeral homes. Philosophy of Design Series This April and May, we celebrate the transformative power of design with a series of events examining the work of influential architects of the past. We'll explore how their unique philosophies and principles were reflected in their creations—works that not only shaped the way we view the world and experience space but opened up new possibilities for ways of living.  Janna Ireland lives in Los Angeles, where she is an assistant professor in the Department of Art and Art History at Occidental College. Her photographic work is primarily concerned with the themes of family and domestic life, the built environment, and interactions between humans and the natural world. She is the author of Regarding Paul R. Williams: A Photographer's View (Angel City Press, 2020). Ireland’s photographs are held in the permanent collections of institutions including LACMA, SFMOMA, the California African American Museum, and the Santa Barbara Museum of Art. She holds an MFA from the UCLA Department of Art and a BFA from the Department of Photography and Imaging at NYU. Ticket price: $15 suggested donation (in person event only).
