The Azrieli School of Architecture and Urbanism<\/a> at 杏吧原创 University is hosting the powerful exhibit the Evidence Room<\/em><\/a>.<\/em>  The collection of documents, cast in white plaster, are sourced from thousands used as court evidence by historian Robert Jan van Pelt to prove that Auschwitz was purposefully designed as a death camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of this exhibit, Anne Bordeleau, director of the School of Architecture at Waterloo University and one of the creators of the Evidence Room<\/em> exhibit, will deliver an informal talk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lecture and Q&A with Anne Bordeleau<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When<\/strong>: Thursday, Feb. 1, 2018, at 6 p.m.
\nWhere<\/strong>: The Pit and the Lightroom Gallery, Architecture Building<\/p>\n\n\n\n


\nExhibit Hours<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When<\/strong>: Open until Friday, Feb. 16, 2018, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday to Friday

\nInfo<\/strong>: This exhibition is free and open to the public. Tours are available for interested groups by appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Media are invited to attend.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibit contains more than 20 documents cast in white plaster and features architectural evidence such as drawings, correspondences and photographs.  The work is a silent witness to this chapter of human history and a reminder of architecture’s complicity. The Evidence Room<\/em> collection was created by Bordeleau, Jan Van Pelt, Sascha Hastings and Donald McKay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a rare opportunity to view this work locally.  The Evidence Room<\/em> has been shown at the Venice Biennale (2016), the Canadian Centre for Architecture (2016) and the Royal Ontario Museum (2017).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
