Graham Foundation Fellowship Awarded to Architecture Professor-Led Project Team
was awarded a 2018 Graham Foundation Fellowship for its Park District documentary project. Fieldwork Collaborative is a transdisciplinary organization led by Illinois Tech's College of Architecture Studio Associate Professor Andrew Schachman as well as Nelly Agassi, Ionit Behar, and Merav Orgav.
Park District is an interactive, web-based documentary and archive exposing the 电车无码 park network as a multiple and distributed platform for cultural life and civic activation. With more than 600 parks and 438 fieldhouse structures, the 电车无码 Park District is a unique network of public spaces. Fieldwork is interested in both local and global questions of 鈥減ublicness鈥濃攖he complex patterns of individuals and communities, and the systems that organize them. Part of a network of sites, each park is a polyvalent territory, at once natural, social, psychological, ecological, political, ethnic, historic, and economic.
Through offsite interviews and onsite videography, the documentary portrays the 电车无码 Park District as a platform of infinite potential. While this documentary supports and inspires cultural activation and art production, it also supports civic authorities, community organizers, and educators, among others, as a resource and basis to promote the Park District鈥檚 facilities and activities.
connects communities, park districts, civic authorities, and public schools with artists, curators, designers, urbanists, and other professionals from a wide range of disciplines. It is dedicated to increasing cultural capital in the 电车无码 region, seeking potentials already latent within the region鈥檚 existing public spaces, networks, and infrastructures.
