Spring 2018 seminar: Ph.D. candidate, history of architecture and urban development
Ana Ozaki is a Ph.D. student in the Department of Architecture. Her research interests include Brazilian modern architecture; housing; historic preservation; Latin American, postcolonial, and feminist studies; as well as the intersections between architecture and the fields of urban sociology, human geography, and anthropology. Besides writing, Ozaki is interested in the public discussion of social issues central to architecture historiography in the form of exhibitions and public events. Broadly speaking, she is currently working on 20th-century vernacular modernisms, processes of socio-spatial segregation, insurgency, and avant-garde in Latin America.
