Marjetica Potrc: Urgent Architecture is the first United States museum survey of Slovenia-born artist and architect Marjetica Potrc since she was awarded the Guggenheim Museum Hugo Boss Prize in 2000.

Potrc has created a complex and visually arresting architectural collage based on her research in densely populated communities in Caracas, the West Bank, and West Palm Beach. She is also premiering a series of drawings of Boston’s Big Dig Project.
