As part of its program of discussions and exchanges, VOX -ARTIS , RAW MATERIAL COMPANY offers a conference with Dwight Carey, researcher PhD in History of Art and Architecture at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) .
Dwight Carey is currently in Senegal to finalize his doctoral research on the role of trade in the global development of Creole architecture. This project examines the style of internationally uniform architecture that characterized the houses of commerce in the busiest ports of the French colonial empire from the 17th to 19th century, especially in New Orleans, Louisiana , Saint- Louis, Senegal and Port Louis in Mauritius . His work examines the process by which economies of exchange provoked a mixture of several traditions of construction and the formation of a global trade architecture . This project is the first study of the colonial economies that led the international development of a commercial form of Creole architecture.
