Unveiling in March 2025 is a new exhibition in the Mies Gallery for Illinois Institute of Technology Campus History entitled “A Space for the Senses” (located in the west lobby gallery inside of the Michael Paul Galvin Tower). Planning and design are underway to feature an exhibition by acclaimed artistic duo Petra Bachmaier and Sean Gallerlo, or otherwise known as Luftwerk. Mies Society and the InterProfessional Projects (IPRO) Program students from Mindful Modern Buildings have underpinned this exhibition by exploring body-image theory, aesthetics, and movement as guided through sight, sound, touch, and haptic (feeling and doing at the same time) senses. The importance of basic spatial dimensions will guide wayfinding and heighten the experience of architecture.
