Costantino Nivola in Manhattan (walking tour)
Architect Roger Broome, a licensed, LEED-accredited architect, will lead the tour. Costantino Nivola was a unique figure who bridged art and architecture by creating site-specific artwork for buildings, most publicly accessible and many in collaboration with prominent architects. He occupies a largely unexamined but important place in the post-war modern movement, and his artwork communicates to a broad audience using a symbolic language he created with materials and methods often shared by the buildings he embellished.
