• Alberto Pérez-Gómez was born in Mexico City in 1949, where he studied and practiced architecture. In 1983 he became Director of Carleton University’s School of Architecture. Since January 1987 he has occupied the Bronfman Chair of Architectural History at McGill University, where he founded the History and eory Post-Professional (Master’s and Doctoral) Programs. He has lectured extensively around the world and is the author of numerous articles published in major periodicals and books. His book Architecture and the Crisis of Modern Science (MIT Press, 1983) won the Hitchcock Award in 1984. Later books include Polyphilo or The Dark Forest Revisited (1992), Architectural Representation and the Perspective Hinge (co-authored with Louise Pelletier, 1997), and most recently, Built upon Love: Architectural Longing after Ethics and Aesthetics (2006), examining points of convergence between ethics and poetics in architectural history and philosophy. Pérez-Gómez is also co-editor (with Stephen Parcell) of a book series entitled Chora: Intervals in the Philosophy of Architecture.
