MEET THE 2022 MODERNISM WEEK KEYNOTE SPEAKER: JEANNE GANG, FAIA

WE’RE HONORED TO WELCOME JEANNE GANG, FAIA TO THE MODERNISM WEEK STAGE AS NEXT
YEAR’S KEYNOTE SPEAKER.



Each year, Modernism Week invites a distinguished member of the design community
as the featured Keynote Speaker. Past speakers have included Martyn
Lawrence-Bullard, Moshe Safdie, and Daniel Libeskind.

In 2022, world-renowned architect Jeanne Gang, FAIA, will be delivering
Modernism Week’s Keynote Presentation on February 19, 2022.

Jeanne Gang is the founding principal and partner of Studio Gang, an
international architecture and urban design practice headquartered in Chicago,
with offices in New York, San Francisco, and Paris.  Founded in 1997, her firm
has matured into a global powerhouse, with work around the world.

Drawing insight from ecological systems, Jeanne is recognized for a
research-based design process that foregrounds the relationships between
individuals, communities, and environments. Her analytical, sustainable and
creative approach has produced projects across scales and typologies.

Studio Gang’s diverse, award-winning body of work ranges from cultural centers
that convene diverse audiences and public projects that connect citizens with
ecology to installations that challenge material properties and high-rise towers
that foster community. Notable among these are Writers Theatre, a professional
theater in Glencoe, Illinois; the Arcus Center for Social Justice Leadership at
Kalamazoo College in Kalamazoo, Michigan; and the 82-story, undulating Aqua
Tower in Chicago (the second tallest woman-designed building in the world).

Her ongoing work includes major cultural and civic projects throughout the
Americas and Europe, such as an expansion to the American Museum of Natural
History in New York City; a new United States Embassy in Brasília;
the University of Chicago’s European hub for study and research in Paris; a
unified campus for the California College of the Arts in San Francisco; and
the new O’Hare Global Terminal in Chicago. Mixed-use towers
in Toronto, Amsterdam, Los Angeles and Honolulu are also underway.

Intertwined with built work, Jeanne and the Studio also
develop research, publications, and exhibitions that push design’s ability to
create public awareness and give rise to change—a practice Jeanne calls
“actionable idealism.” The Studio has championed innovative design strategies to
improve ecological biodiversity in cities, including bird-safe building
techniques and an experimental prairie ecosystem on the rooftop of their Chicago
office. At the same time, Jeanne has challenged the status quo in professional
practice by closing the gender wage gap in her company and encouraging her
colleagues to follow suit.

Jeanne is a Professor in Practice at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, her
alma mater, where her teaching and research focus on the cultural and
environmental aspects of buildings’ reuse. She is the author of three books on
architecture, including a monograph of the Studio’s work, Studio Gang:
Architecture (2020). Her work has been exhibited widely, including at the Museum
of Modern Art, the International Venice Architecture Biennale, and the Art
Institute of Chicago.

A MacArthur Fellow, 2017 William A. Bernoudy Architect in Residence at the
American Academy in Rome, and an elected member of the American Academy of Arts
and Sciences, Jeanne has been honored with the Cooper Hewitt National Design
Award in Architecture and was named one of 2019’s most influential people in the
world by TIME magazine. Further accolades include Architectural Review’s
Architect of the Year, the Louis I. Kahn Memorial Award, and the Marcus Prize
for Architecture.
