 ALAN DUNLOP VISITS APDESIGN TO LECTURE, SERVE ON HEINTZELMAN JURY

MANHATTAN - Alan Dunlop, who recently finished a term as the Distinguished Victor L. Regnier Visiting Chair in Architecture in the College of Architecture, Planning & Design at Kansas State University, is coming back to campus.

Dunlop, a Fellow of the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland and the Royal Society of Arts, will give a lecture at 5 p.m. on Thursday, May 5, 2011, in the Little Theater at the K-State Student Union. The lecture is free and open to the public.

“The lecture is titled ‘A River Runs Through It’,” said Professor of Architecture Susanne Siepl-Coates. “It will focus on the River Clyde that runs through Glasgow, the city in which Alan Dunlop practices architecture. Dunlop will illustrate how the river has influenced everything this city was and is, and how his own work is situated in this context.”

Following the lecture, Dunlop will also participate in the 2011 Heintzelman Jury, which will award the Heintzelman and Kremer Prizes. The Heintzelman Prize, named for J. Cranston Heintzelman, a long-time educator in the Department of Architecture, recognizes outstanding individual design achievements by students in the final semester of the professional Master of Architecture degree program. The Kremer Prize, named after Eugene Kremer, a long-time member and head of the Department of Architecture, recognizes outstanding collaborative design achievements by students in the final semester of the professional Master of Architecture degree program.
