SCI-Arc will be presenting the lectures of Dwayne Oyler and Jenny Wu of Oyler Wu Collaborative this Friday, February 10th at 1pm in the W. M. Keck Lecture Hall. Established in Los Angele in 2004, the firm has been published globally and is recognized for its experimentation in design and innovative strategies. Recent projects include reALIze, a traveling art installation based on the face of Muhammad Ali, and the 2011 SCI-Arc graduation pavilion. More information on the event after the break.
Oyler Wu is currently at work on a 16-story residential tower in Taipei, Taiwan, a 10-story media office in Los Angeles, and architectural installations in Taipei and Los Angeles. The office has recently exhibited at the Beijing Biennale, the Guggenheim Museum in New York, and the London Festival of Architecture.
Both partners currently teach design studio at SCI-Arc. Their book, Pendulum Plane, was published in 2009 by the Los Angeles Forum for Architecture and Urban Design, and most recently, a book entitled, reALIze, was published in 2011. In 2010, they received the first annual “Arch Is” award given by the AIA Los Angeles for emerging talents in architectural design.
