- catalog description "Josep Lluis Sert received a degree in architecture in 1929 from Barcelona's ESA in the 1930s. Among the leading young Spanish architects in the 1930s, he gained an international reputation with his design for the Spanish Pavilion built for the 1937 Paris Exposition. Emigrating to the United states in 1941, he was from 1941-1958 a founding partner in Town Planning Associates and in 1955, he opened his own firm, Sert Jackson, & Associates, in Cambridge, MA. SJA's work included residences, museums, and numerous large-scale commercial and educational commissions. Among the last named were several large-scale buildings for Harvard University (Holyoke Center, Peabody Terrace and the Science Center). Sert also oversaw the construction process for the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts; he had been an effective advocate for his long-time colleague Le Corbusier in securing the commission. At the recommendation of Walter Gropius, Sert was named Dean of Harvard's Graduate School of Design in 1953, with a complementary appointment as chairman and Professor of Architecture. During his extradordinarily vibrant and productive tenure as Dean (until his retirement in 1969) Sert oversaw a variety of innovations in the curriculum, including the establishment of the first formal professional degree program in Urban Design.".
