I am finishing up my bachelor's in Art History and taking some time to get my applications together for September 2020. I am very interested in pursuing modern architecture as a field, but I have found very few architecture specialists on Art History faculties around North America, let alone ones who study modern architecture over baroque or ancient. Does anyone know of some good profs/programs to look into in the modern/contemporary architecture field? I am open to going to Europe, but I have not had a thorough look through schools there as of yet. My particular interests revolve around Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier and Frank Lloyd Wright. I have had a look at some Architecture faculties at larger universities as well, but I am unsure of how advantageous it would be to hold an MA/PhD in History of Architecture over History of Art in terms of future employment as an instructor considering it seems to be such a niche field? However, I also feel that having an education in architecture lends itself well to placing me on the faculties of Architecture schools as a theory/history instructor over just the art history departments worldwide. Am I right to think that? Thanks a bunch!
