Zoom around the globe with University of Arizona Professor of Architectural History Lisa D. Schrenk to explore the architectural designs and building innovations that shaped the first 60 years of international expositions. These include advances in iron, glass, electricity, and aesthetics, all of which made possible the magnificent pavilions that covered the fairgrounds at these grand events.
This lecture is co-sponsored by The Institute for the Study of International Expositions (ISIE) of which Schrenk is co-founder. Support provided by Carol Pletcher.
