Synopsis

"The Making of an Avant-Garde" documents the origins and impact of the Institute of Architecture and Urban Studies (IAUS) within the turbulent architectural, cultural, and political landscape of the late 1960s and 1970s. Against a backdrop of anti-war protests, the Women's Movement, the Paris May of '68, and the challenges of 1970s New York City, the Institute – founded in 1967 with connections to The Museum of Modern Art – transformed New York into the world's hub for architectural discussion. Initially comprised of young, relatively unknown figures, the IAUS fostered a vibrant environment that would shape architectural practice and theory for decades to come. It became a pivotal point for rethinking architecture and urban planning, and its influence continues to resonate today.
