September 10th – Minsuk Cho – Mass Studies
From 6:30pm at The Sugar Club.

Mass Studies was founded in 2003 by Minsuk Cho in Seoul, Korea, as a critical investigation of architecture in the context of mass production, intensely over-populated urban conditions, and other emergent cultural niches that define contemporary society.
He co-curated an exhibition titled “Named Design” with Anthony Fontenot for the Gwangju Design Biennale 2011, directed by Seung H-Sang and Ai Weiwei. Minsuk Cho is the Commissioner of the Korean Pavilion and winner of the Golden Lion for Best National Participation for “Crow’s Eye View: The Korean peninsula” at the 14th Venice Architecture Biennale 2014.

ALA has demonstrated its ability to design and put into practice impressive architecture on an international scale, and Woolston is known particularly for his considerate and artistic design approach. His interest in interdisciplinary and cross-cultural design is evident in his work as lead designer of the Lappeenranta City Theatre.
