Surveying Quantities: Paris and the Modernization of Space
Min Kyung Lee is Assistant Professor of Modern Architecture in the Growth and Structure of Cities Department at Bryn Mawr College. Her work explores the relations of mapping, geography, architecture, and urbanism, tracing the transition from perspectival to orthographic representations of cities during the long nineteenth century. Her monograph, The Tyranny of the Straight Line: Mapping Modern Paris is currently under review, and focuses on the surveying of the French capital city. This project was linked to a program on the quantification of space that she conceived as the inaugural Banister Fletcher Global Fellow at the University of London- Institute of Paris, Queen Mary University and the Bartlett School of Architecture.For more information, call 845-752-4388, e-mail [email protected],
