The works on view are selected from his archive\, which consists of m ore than 1\,000 ink/pencil drawings\, prints\, maps\, and posters\, found within 125 tubes\, rolls\, and folders stored in his home until his passin g in March 2018. The exhibition covers Ovaska's accomplishments in a chron ological sequence from his work as a student to professional work in Berli n and Ithaca. Evidence of Ovaska's skill and passion for architecture is p resent throughout the collection in the form of exquisitely crafted drawin gs and exploratory sketches\, from work as a first-year architecture stude nt\, to developed drawings for a garden complex in Berlin\, to lecture pos ters from events in Germany and the U.S. Occasionally\, his well-known sen se of humor reveals itself in a satirical newspaper or comic strip\, inter spersed among complex competition proposals\, urban planning strategies\, or housing projects.\n\nBorn in Hingham\, Massachusetts\, Ovaska began the study of architecture at Cornell in 1968. After receiving his undergradua te degree at Cornell\, Ovaska began graduate architecture studies with his mentor\, professor and department chair O. M. Ungers.

He was a major contributor to The City in the City: Berlin\, A Green Archipelago\, a 1977 manifesto by Ungers and Rem Koolhaas . In 1978\, he cofounded the office Kolhoff and Ovaska with Hans Kolhoff\, who had also been enrolled in Cornell's graduate program. Their office pr oduced significant designs for Berlin's International Building Exposition 1979–84/87\, including the original master plan as well as several const ructions including the Lindenstrasse Apartments and the Museum Gardens\, a nd the Luisenplatz Development.\n\nOvaska left Berlin in 1987 to accept a full-time academic position at Cornell. His career included many departmen t administrative positions\, and in 2005\, as director of undergraduate st udies in architecture\, he helped AAP accommodate 36 Tulane University stu dents displaced by Hurricane Katrina.

After receiving his undergradua te degree at Cornell\, Ovaska began graduate architecture studies with his mentor\, professor and department chair O. M. Ungers.

He was a major contributor to The City in the City: Berlin\, A Green Archipelago\, a 1977 manifesto by Ungers and Rem Koolhaas . In 1978\, he cofounded the office Kolhoff and Ovaska with Hans Kolhoff\, who had also been enrolled in Cornell's graduate program. Their office pr oduced significant designs for Berlin's International Building Exposition 1979–84/87\, including the original master plan as well as several const ructions including the Lindenstrasse Apartments and the Museum Gardens\, a nd the Luisenplatz Development.\n\nOvaska left Berlin in 1987 to accept a full-time academic position at Cornell. His career included many departmen t administrative positions\, and in 2005\, as director of undergraduate st udies in architecture\, he helped AAP accommodate 36 Tulane University stu dents displaced by Hurricane Katrina. He also served as a faculty adviser to the Cornell chapter of the National Organization of Minority Architectu re Students.\n\nSpecial thanks goes to Sherri LaTorre-Ovaska and family fo r the generous donation of Ovaska's works to the Division of Rare and Manu script Collections at the Cornell University Library. This exhibition is c ocurated by Andrea Simitch\, professor and chair of the Department of Arch itecture\; and Lucy Flieger (B.Arch.
