Conference on Marjorie Welish Series
Curated by Aaron Levy, Jean-Michel Rabaté
Published by Slought Foundation (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)


The word "respondent" in conferences usually means "in response to others' papers" given live although written in advance. By "pre-respondent" we mean something different: a paper in response to work by Marjorie Welish--not work by others--not to be read in public as a free-standing paper yet circulated to the other conference participants in advance. These papers are published online, and subsequently in book format with the papers given live.

Deborah Gans and Matthew Jelacic are partners in the office Gans & Jelacic, Architecture and Design. Their work in the fields of industrial design and architecture has been exhibited at RIBA, London, IFA, Paris and the Van Alen Institute in New York City. Their recent investigation into disaster relief housing has won international awards and a grant for development from the Johnny Walker Fund. Both Gans and Jelacic are Professors in architecture at Pratt Institute in New York. Deborah Gans is the author of The Le Corbusier Guide (Princeton Architectural Press) and the editor of a forthcoming book The Organic Appproach (Architectre/John Wiley- London).
