Elizabeth Diller situates her work at the intersection of architecture and art, referencing the interdisciplinary context of her formative student years in mid-1970s New York.
This approach persists through her integration of artistic media and techniques within architectural practice, as well as through the application of architectural tools to create artistic interventions across various scales and typologies. From the temporary installation of Traffic (1981) in New York City’s Columbus Circle to the subversion of curatorial logic in the V&A East Storehouse (2025), Diller’s cross-disciplinary methodology enables narratives to unfold beyond the constraints of convention and pushes the definition of what architecture can be.
Biography
Elizabeth Diller co-founded Diller Scofidio + Renfro, a design studio at the intersection of architecture and the arts and was the first architect, alongside Ricardo Scofidio, to receive the MacArthur Foundation "Genius Grant". DS+R’s work spans ambitious cultural, educational, and civic work, including MoMA's expansion and the High Line in New York. Recent international work includes the V&A East Storehouse in London and the upcoming renovation of PRD Montparnasse in Paris.
Diller’s ongoing installation work builds on DS+R’s legacy of art and architectural collaboration. In 2025, she presented Exit at the Fondation Cartier, a data-driven exploration of global migration patterns, and was awarded the Venice Biennale’s Golden Lion for Canal Cafe, a hybrid cafe-laboratory filtering lagoon water for a distinctly Venetian espresso. She is a professor at the Princeton School of Architecture.
