Kyle May & Jacob Reidel: "CLOG – Everyone’s a Critic"

CLOG is a quarterly print-only architecture publication based in New York City. Each issue critically explores a single subject particularly relevant to architecture now. Its editorial staff has backgrounds in architecture, history, design, criticism, fine art, graphic design and more. Its contributors range from journalists to architects to scholars to philosophers to artists to students to comedians to everything in between. While the value of multiple viewpoints has become a given today, is there such a thing as too much diversity? Furthermore, how does engaging in practice impact the editing of a critical publication?

Kyle May is a licensed practicing architect in NYC and co-founder and Editor-in-Chief of CLOG. He is currently co-authoring a book on Wallace Harrison entitled The Egg and the Extrusion.

Jacob Reidel practices architecture in NYC and is Editor of CLOG. He is currently teaching at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation and is Associate Curator of OfficeUS, the United States Pavilion at the 2014 Architecture Biennale in Venice.

The event is held in English.
