In conjunction with the latest issue of Oculus magazine, a panel of writers and critics will discuss the changed and changing landscape of architectural criticism, wrestling with questions of ethics, equity, and influence and the role that critics play in the public’s perception of the built environment. Addressing the power and the duty of architectural criticism, the panel will discuss where and how it is happening at its best, where there are opportunities to expand these conversations, and how the democratization of criticism has changed the story of our city.
