Minding the Gap: The Role of Contemporary Architecture in the Historic Environment

Moderator Paul Goldberger and a panel of architects, including Rafael Moneo, Denise Scott Brown, Juergen Mayer H., Thomas H. Beeby, and Richard Rogers, discussed the different ways new buildings can be inserted in historic urban areas in this concluding session of the Getty Conservation Institute's symposium, "Minding the Gap: The Role of Contemporary Architecture in the Historic Environment," held on May 21, 2013 at the Getty Center in Los Angeles. May 21, 2013 Heritage conservation is about managing change—and nowhere is this more contentious than in the historic urban environment. How do today's architects insert new buildings in cherished historic urban areas in a way that respects, reveals, and celebrates their special character while potentially creating the heritage of tomorrow? This one-day public symposium explored the role of contemporary architecture in the historic urban environment. A group of international architects and urban planners—including Thomas H. Beeby, Juergen Mayer H., Rafael Moneo, Richard Rogers, and Denise Scott Brown—presented their own work, illustrating a range of approaches to this challenge. The symposium concluded with an evening panel discussion moderated by architectural critic Paul Goldberger. This event complements the GCI's Conserving Modern Architecture and Historic Cities and Urban Settlements Initiatives and was presented in conjunction with Pacific Standard Time Presents: Modern Architecture in L.A.
