Call for entries: Unplanned (January 2010)

SUPERFRONT LA’s first exhibit of 2010 will address the urban scale.  The group exhibit will span architecture, urban design, and urban planning to present emergent urbanism, “wild building”, and other alternatives to conventional modes of planning cities.  Dealing with urban topics from derelict construction sites to refugee camps, favellas, temporary housing and other contemporary spatial phenomena, the exhibition will confront the current economic crises and larger issues of globalization.  Work will be exhibited in multiple formats, from physical models to drawings, animations, video games or experimental formats.

Call for entries – please submit work for consideration in any format.  By email: submit links, text description, or attached files no larger than 2 MB to [email protected] . By hard-copy, submit to SUPERFRONT BK, 1432 Atlantic Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216.  Please do not send original work.  If you want your materials returned, include a self-addressed stamped envelope.  For consideration, all materials need to be received by November 30th.

Architects, urban designers, and planners selected for exhibition will be notified December 8th.

Unplanned will open at SUPERFRONT LA at the Pacific Design Center in January 2010 (exact date TBA) and will be on view for 3 months

A member of the Design Loves Art program at the Pacific Design Center, SUPERFRONT LA is the temporary off-shoot of Brooklyn’s SUPERFRONT, a gallery and project space promoting experiments in architecture.
