South Dakota State University Department of Architecture

Each year the Department of Architecture (DoArch) at South Dakota State University invites guests who highlight issues of academic importance and foster dialog among faculty, students, and university colleagues. During each visit, the Department collects impressions from the visit and makes a document. In April 2017, DoArch faculty invited professor, architect, and landscape architect Martin Hogue from SUNY in Syracuse, NY. During his visit, professor Hogue, presented his work, discussed the implications of formatting work in a lecture titled “After Drawing”, and participated in design reviews.

This small document is a collection of images, thoughts, and things shared during Martin’s visit.

This and future documents like this generate an impression of each visitor’s experience and grow the collective memory of the Department.

In the United States, most registration boards require a degree from an accredited professional degree program as a prerequisite for licensure.

The National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB), which is the sole agency authorized to accredit professional degree programs in architecture offered by institutions with U.S. regional accreditation, recognizes three types of degrees: the Bachelor of Architecture, the Master of Architecture, and the Doctor of Architecture. A program may be granted an eight-year, three-year, or two-year term of accreditation, depending on the extent of its conformance with established educational standards.

Doctor of Architecture and Master of Architecture degree programs may require a pre-professional undergraduate degree in architecture for admission. However, the pre-professional degree is not, by itself, recognized as an accredited degree.

The Department of Architecture at South Dakota State University offers the following NAAB-accredited degree programs: M. Arch. (Pre-professional degree + 48 graduate credits) M. Arch. (Non-preprofessional degree + 97 credits) Next accreditation visit for all programs: 2019

Martin Hogue teaches landscape architecture in the College of Environmental Science and Forestry at the State University of New York in Syracuse. Trained as an architect and landscape architect, and working primarily with analytical drawings as a mode of inquiry, his research explores the notion of site as a cultural construction — specifically, the mechanisms by which locations become invested with the unique potential to acquire the designation of “site”.

Hogue’s most recent work, which centers around camping culture in the United States, interrogates the discrepancies that exist between the deeply cherished American ideal of ruggedness and independence and the desire for an increasingly sophisticated range of utilities and conveniences. Campgrounds indeed commodify into multiple sites — literally tens of thousands of them across the United States — the locus of this singular experience. Each “lone” campsite functions as a stage upon which cultural fantasies can be performed in full view of an audience of fellow campers interested in much the “wilderness” experience. In [Fake] Fake Estates, completed in 2006, Hogue proposes a new take on Gordon Matta-Clark’s seminal 1975 Fake Estates project, in 6

which the artist purchased and later documented 14 residual land parcels at auction in Queens for $25 each (a 2.33’ x 355’ long strip of land, a 1.83’ x 1.11’ lot, among others). This project is one of many (Landing Strip, The Site as Project, etc.) that pays tribute to 1960s and 1970s conceptual artists such as Matta-Clark, Robert Smithson, and Walter De Maria, whose site explorations form the basis of contemporary speculation in his work.

Hogue has been supported with residencies at the MacDowell Colony, the Center for Land Use Interpretation, the Canadian Center for Architecture, the University of Nebraska, and the New York State Council on the Arts. His work has been displayed in solo exhibits at over 25 venues across the United States, including The Ohio State University, Cornell University, the Urban Center in New York, the University of Southern California, and the Center for Land Use Interpretation. Hogue’s research has also appeared in 306090, Architecture-Québec, Bracket, Dichotomy, Ground Magazine, Landscape Architecture Magazine, Landscape Journal, Numéro, Pidgin, Places, Thresholds, and the Journal of Architectural Education.

His book Thirtyfour Campgrounds was published at The MIT Press in November 2016.

Martin Hogue After Drawing DoArch Lecture

Martin Hogue’s Lecture, After Drawing, was organized into two parts: 1. Drawing as artifact and 2. Making time to make boards. The first portion of the lecture focused on the importance of graphics in professor Hogue’s work, specifically in the design of his exhibit, 925,000 Campsites. The second portion of his lecture outlined a series of strategies for making boards. Martin Hogue’s work highlights that drawings can open up a world that was never meant to be constructed.
