SUMMARY:The End of the Environmental Era
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, November 19\, 2014 from 11:00 am to 12:50 pm\nLocation: Columbia University\, Morningside Campus\, International Affairs Building\, Room 407 \nContact: For further information regarding this event\, please contact Hayley Martinez by sending email to hmartinez@ei.columbia.edu. \nThe Earth Institute presents Origins of Environmental Law Lecture Series Description: Introduction to Early Environmental Legislation\, Pre-1969. \nThis seminar is part of a semester-long lecture series entitled The Origins of Environmental Law: Regulation and Evolution. Leon G. Billings and Thomas C. Jorling are the two senior staff members who led the Senate environment subcommittee which originated and developed major environmental legislation in the 1970s\, including the Clean Air Act\, the Clean Water Act\, and the Superfund Act. Over the course of a single decade\, Congress enacted a series of environmental laws that defined the direction and character of environmental policy in the US and globally. Learn about the process that led to these seminal laws from the writers of the legislation themselves. \nThe 1970s was a successful decade for major environmental legislation\, ending with the passing of the Superfund Act in 1980. This talk will compare Congress during the 1970s to Congress today\, including a comparison of the committees\, the legislative process\, and politics. Among others\, they will discuss the role of the media\, election processes\, and the role of campaign finance and fundraising. \nRSVP is required for this event. Please note this lecture is part of a regularly scheduled course. Guests will join registered students in the class for the lecture and discussion.

SUMMARY:Retrofitting urban buildings for flood risk
DESCRIPTION:Retrofitting urban buildings for flood risk is one of New York City’s most complex planning challenges. Like other American coastal cities – but to an even greater degree given its size\, density\, and 520 miles of shoreline – NYC’s waterfront neighborhoods face significant challenges in adapting to increased coastal flood risks. There are nearly 71\,500 buildings\, 532 million square feet of interior space\, and 400\,000 residents located within the city’s 1% annual chance floodplain\, as defined in the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) 2013 Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Maps (PFIRMs). While over time\, new construction will replace some older buildings\, wholesale replacement of the existing building stock would take decades and would be prohibitively expensive and highly disruptive. In addition\, Congressional changes to the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)\, enacted in 2012 and 2014\, now require owners to pay higher flood insurance premiums for buildings that predate the flood maps\, putting financial stress on many homeowners and property owners who cannot easily retrofit their buildings to meet NFIP standards. \nWith this context in mind\, the panel discussion will seek to address questions such as the following: What can building owners do to protect their buildings? What are the benefits and limitations of existing federal guidelines and regulations for urban buildings? What regulatory changes are needed to support practical and cost-effective methods of mitigation? This event panel is presented in conjunction with the related Retrofitting Buildings for Flood Risk report by NYC Department of City Planning\, released October 8th\, 2014. \nModerator:\nDavid Giambusso\, Reporter\, Capital New York \nPresenters:\nCecilia Kushner\, AICP\, Deputy Director for Climate Resilience\, Strategic Planning\, NYC Department of City Planning\nJesse Levin\, RA\, Architect and Project Manager of Retrofitting Buildings for Flood Risk\, Urban Design\, NYC Department of City Planning\nMichael Marrella\, AICP\, Director\, Waterfront and Open Space\, NYC Department of City Planning \nPanelists:\nMargaret Becker\, Director\, Disaster Recovery and Community Development\, Legal Services NYC\nKatherine Greig\, Senior Policy Advisor\, NYC Mayor’s Office of Recovery and Resiliency\nKayed Lakhia\, Deputy Director\, Mitigation and Risk Reduction\, FEMA\nCecilia Kushner\, AICP\, Deputy Director for Climate Resilience\, Strategic Planning\, NYC Department of City Planning \n  \nImage posted: Daniel Schwen\, cities-today.com

SUMMARY:Thomas Scheibitz\, "Studio Imaginaire"
DESCRIPTION:Tanya Bonakdar Gallery is pleased to announce the gallery’s eighth solo exhibition with Thomas Scheibitz. Entitled Studio Imaginaire\, the exhibition presents new painting\, relief and sculpture by the artist that invite exploration of the studio as a space between workshop and utopia. Pushing beyond the studio practices of predecessors ranging from Courbet to Mondrian and Bacon\, Scheibitz utilizes the formal elements of painting to investigate iconographic questions and the rhetoric of the signifier and the signified. \nThe title of the exhibition\, Studio Imaginaire\, references Andre Malraux and the Musée Imaginaire\, an idea that Scheibitz identifies with in his own practice of collecting and referencing an ever-expanding archive. In the Musée Imaginaire\, Malraux sought to amass two-dimensional graphic representations of art from all cultures and time periods\, which could be curated\, juxtaposed\, and reconfigured with limitless facility. Thomas Scheibitz’s new works skillfully bring together selections culled from the artist’s vast collection of found imagery\, in a continuation of the artist’s hallmark practice developed over nearly two decades. From fashion photography to Renaissance-era maps\, Scheibitz gathers visual information that interests him and then uses it as source material. Through layering\, refining and expanding upon these images taken from the common lexicon of contemporary experience\, Scheibitz synthesizes the various forms into compositions that superbly distill the amalgamation of relationships in the final tableau. In a similar sense\, Scheibitz riffs on Malraux’s Musée Imaginaire with the desire to examine the studio itself as a crucial space in which ideas\, images and styles can freely coalesce. \nThe works in the exhibition are united by both their formal characteristics and their palette of bright primary colors\, steely blue-grays\, and vibrant neons. Numerals and letters find equal footing with the simplified geometries of pyramids\, stars\, and arrows. Distilled into formal icons\, these elements are the building blocks of the artist’s precise compositions. \nThe Exhibit runs until December 20th.

SUMMARY:Structures of Coastal Resilience: Designing for Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:The devastation caused by Hurricane Sandy in October 2012 highlighted the vulnerability of urban coastal areas to the effects of catastrophic storms and climate change. Coastal communities must adapt planning strategies to mitigate the increasing risk posed by these natural hazards. \nSupported by the Rockefeller Foundation\, Structures of Coastal Resilience (SCR) brings together a distinguished group of engineers\, scientists\, architects\, landscape architects\, and scholars. Four landscape design teams based at City College of New York\, Harvard University\, Princeton University\, and the University of Pennsylvania have generated in-depth master planning proposals for four distinct sites on the North Atlantic—Norfolk VA\, Atlantic City NJ\, Jamaica Bay NY\, and Narragansett Bay RI. The design proposals have been influenced and informed by the concurrent work of the climate science team based at Princeton University. \nThis presentation and panel discussion will introduce exciting new methods to predict sea level rise and storm surge inundation risk as well as imaginative design proposals that combine and reinvent landscape and planning strategies including salt marsh expansion\, house-lifting\, canal building\, topographical transformation\, and coastal forest restoration. \nPanelists:\nGuy Nordenson\, Professor\, Princeton University School of Architecture\, and Founder\, Guy Nordenson and Associates\nMichael Oppenheimer\, Director\, Program in Science Technology and Environmental Policy (STEP)\, and Albert G. Milbank Professor of Geosciences and International Affairs\, Woodrow Wilson School and the Department of Geosciences\, Princeton University\nPaul Lewis\, AIA\, Associate Professor\, architecural Design\, Directorof Graduate Studies\, M.Arch. Programs\, Princeton University School of Architecture\, and Principal\, Lewis.Tsurumaki.Lewis (LTL) Architecture\nCatherine Seavitt\, Associate Professor\, CUNY’s City College of New York\, and Founder\, Catherine Seavitt Studio\nAnuradha Mathur\, Professor and Associate Chair\,  Landscape Architecure Department\, University of Pennsylvania School of Design\nDilip da Cunha\, Adjunct Professor\, University of Pennsylvania School of Design \nWhen: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM TUESDAY\, NOVEMBER 25 \nWhere: The Center for Architecture \nOrganized by: AIANY Design for Risk and Reconstruction Committee & ASLA NY\nPrice: Free for students with valid id\, AIA and ASLA members; $10 for non-members \nPlease register here: http://cfa.aiany.org/index.php?section=calendar&evtid=7789

SUMMARY:Film Showing: Food Design
DESCRIPTION:Food Design  \nA Film by Martin Hablesreiter and Sonja Stummerer  \nThe sound of sausage: When a bite produces a distinct crunch\, they taste particularly good. Fish sticks\, on the other hand\, don’t make such great noises\, but they can be arranged nicely in the pan. And is it merely a coincidence that bologna fits perfectly onto a slice of bread\, and that when combined\, they make up a popular snack? \nDesigners create clothes\, furniture\, cars and all kinds of useful items. So why not food? Food designers work on things to eat\, giving them a certain style and function. They not only make sure that food and drink fill our stomachs\, but also that the eating process is practical and appeals to all the senses – so that we’re hungry for more. \nFOOD DESIGN takes a look at the secret chambers of a major manufacturer of food\, where designers and scientists are defining your favorite mouthful of tomorrow. It shows how form\, color\, smell\, consistency\, the sounds made during eating\, manufacturing technique\, history and stories are all aspects of food and eating that both influence food design\, and are created by it. \nFree and open to the public. Healthy light snacks and refreshments will be served. \nWhen: December 9\, 2014 at 7:00P.M. Where: Park Slope Food Coop\, Upstairs Meeting Room.
