BAIA Event: Art | Technology | Architecture

BAIA, in collaboration with SilviaGirardi Art, is pleased to host a panel discussion featuring San Francisco born architect Brett Terpeluk, who worked with Renzo Piano on the new Academy of Sciences project, and Christopher Haas, who collaborated with designers Herzog & de Meuron in creating the de Young Museum.

Join us in the beautiful setting of the terrace of the deYoung and take this opportunity to have an intimate conversation with architects, artists and designers who transform dreams into wonderful living structures and expressions of art. The discussion will revolve around how art, technology and architecture combine to create some of the most stunning spaces in the world.

What are the influences and dependencies that Art, Technology and Architecture have on each other? How has technology changed "what is possible" in the world of Art and Architecture?
