This Cranbrook Academy of Art lecture is free and open to the public at Cranbrook’s deSalle Auditorium. Please note that Cranbrook Art Museum’s galleries will not be open. Enter through the Cranbrook Academy of Art Library entrance.
Join us for a lecture with architect Dolores Mallea, founder of SUR DEL CRUZ, a studio and workshop based in Buenos Aires, Argentina. SUR DEL CRUZ works at the intersection of architecture, design, art, and material research.
Rooted in a deep understanding of wood, the team’s practice is driven by experimentation and a commitment to continuously refining craftsmanship.
Later in 2025, two of their pieces, Tronito Americano and Lámpara Pistón (Campaign Collection), will be part of the Here We Are! Women in Design 1900 – Today exhibition at Fundación PROA in collaboration with the Vitra Design Museum.
SUR DEL CRUZ also serves as an external consultant for the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) on wooden housing, in collaboration with architect Joaquín Lavelli.
