Architecture Professor Collaborates on Times Square Art Project

Adjunct Professor of Architecture William Rockwell has collaborated with the artist David Brooks on the first installation of his project, Desert Rooftops, on view until Feb. 5 at The Last Lot project space on 46th Street and 8th Avenue in New York City. Rockwell's firm William/Architect consulted on the project presented by the Art Production Fund. The installation features a 5,000-square-foot sculpture of conjoined asphalt-shingled rooftops meant to spark conversation about the consequences of unchecked urban sprawl.
