They also answer a vital question: as a project comes to life, at what point(s) should critics weigh in? In this panel discussion, prominent editors and writers will discuss the overall trends and shifts in architecture criticism today. The discussion is co-sponsored by the AIA NY Marketing and PR Committee and the Oculus Committee. ARCHITECTURE & THE MEDIA SERIES: This four-part series will explore today’s media landscape, with panels featuring leading architectural and real estate writers, critics, and editors. The panels will address the differences between design criticism and reportage, how architecture is portrayed to the public, and how architects present themselves. The panels will consider how the digital revolution is radically changing the landscape of publishing.
