Van Alen Institute has spent more than 130 years at the intersection of design ambition and civic life, and its archive of competition boards, jury records, travel logs, and correspondence is one of the most extensive records of American architectural history. Working directly with these materials, the participants ask what the archive reveals about who design has historically served and whom it has erased, through works such as sonic installations summoning uncredited voices and core samples grounding architecture in land history.
