Superlative City: a book workshop

We are excited to announce the final book workshop of Superlative City: Experimental Urbanity in São Paulo! The 2019 workshop is the third meeting of an interdisciplinary working group concerned with relationships between the built environment, aesthetics, and urban identity in the city of São Paulo, Brazil.  First convened as The São Paulo Symposium in 2013 with support from the University of Chicago Center for Latin American Studies and the Consulate General of Brazil in Chicago, this binational research group reconvened in March 2018 at Tulane University to critique essays for an edited volume and refine our theme.

The final book workshop will take place on February 22-23, 2019, at Princeton University. All sessions are free and open to the public. Attendees are strongly encouraged to register in advance in order to receive and read the pre-circulated papers. More information and a registration form will be posted soon.
