Anthony Titus Studio is an interdisciplinary practice that focuses on the relationships between contemporary art and architecture. Since its inception in 2005, the studio has produced numerous installations, objects as well as solo and group exhibitions in the United States and abroad. The practice has consistently explored the uniquely constructed spaces between architecture, painting and sculpture. He received his undergraduate degree in architecture from the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, and a graduate degree in fine art from the University of Chicago.
Parallel to his independent practice, Titus has taught and lectured about architecture and art since 2002 and is currently a tenured professor of architecture at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. In 2022 he was invited by the Harvard University Graduate School of Design to deliver the annual John Hejduk Soundings Lecture. Titus is the recipient of a 2013 research grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts. The research project is titled Twisted Siblings: Relationships Between Contemporary Painting and Digital Architecture. His work has been exhibited and published widely and includes a recent solo exhibition titled Ruptures and Reconciliations at ‘T' Space in Rhinebeck, NY. In 2022 Titus was granted an award in architecture by The American Academy of Arts and Letters.
Lecture Description:
The lecture will focus upon the structure of my transdisciplinary practice of art and architecture. I will speak about a selection of exhibitions, projects, and teaching pedagogy that spans the past decade. Emphasis will be placed upon the processes and procedures as well as the final product of the works. Looking to explore and discover new possibilities between the spaces of architecture, sculpture and painting. The conversation and exchange between these disciplines serves as a rich space of opportunity to enhance and expand our current understanding of space, form, color, and structure as participants in a larger cultural landscape.
