Creative Collaboration | Big Art | May 24, recommended by Amelia Taylor-Hochberg
The notion of the architect as a master collaborator is starting to finally overtake its casting as the lone genius, slaving away in solitude on their creative creation. One of the architect's chief collaborators has historically been artists – but, as this panel will discuss, the path isn't always so smooth. At this panel (free for AIA members!), Artists will share their experiences collaborating on large-scale design works, focusing on issues of funding, ownership, and context.

Moholy-Nagy: Future Present | Open May 27 until September 7, recommended by Nicholas Korody
The Guggenheim is putting on the first comprehensive retrospective of the work of László Moholy-Nagy in some fifty years. If you're not familiar with his work (or if you are), this shouldn't be missed. The founder of the Chicago Institute of Design and a professor at the original Bauhaus, Moholy-Nagy's importance can't really be overstated. While primarily known for his photography and print work, his influence extends far into other disciplines including architecture (in the work of the late Dame Hadid, for example).

LANDMARK | Open now until August 28, recommended by Alexander Walter
One more month until the annual Folly competition winner opens to the public at the Socrates Sculpture Park in Queens (read more about Hou de Sousa's selected entry "Sticks"). In the mean time, the park isn't sitting idle but opened the exhibition LANDMARK earlier this month to celebrate the institution's 30th anniversary. The event features a series of eight commissions and projects including the gigantic living earthwork installation "Concave Room for Bees" by Meg Webster.
