Cory Henry works across art and architecture through his practice, Atelier Cory Henry, sensitively designing to hold cultural memory, unearth hidden narratives, and respond to the specificity of place. His work treats architecture as a social act, attentive to how design serves communities and the meaning it can preserve, create, or erase.
Henry was awarded the Rome Prize in Architecture, the MacDowell Fellowship, and the Bogliasco Foundation Fellowship. His art has been exhibited at the Lisbon Triennale, the American Academy in Rome and USC Fisher Museum of Art, where he was commissioned to create new work for the Paul R. Williams: An Architect Considered exhibit. Recently, he curated a permanent installation, Joy at the Museo dell'Altro e dell'Altrove di Metropoliz in Rome. He has taught at Harvard University Graduate School of Design, the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Michigan, and University of Southern California, among other institutions.
