A project in collaboration between Jeannie Kim and
Hunter Tura, The Architectural League of New York and 1000 designers and 1000 thinkers.
We will produce a series of 1000 unique
postcards, each depicting a single unpublished image from a relatively
unknown designer, and we will send them to a selected group of 1000
influential architects, urbanists, academics, curators, journalists, and
critics, who will have the opportunity to respond.
Our hope is that we will receive images from all over the world and our plan is
to randomly disseminate these images back out into a global context,
making unlikely connections, and creating unforeseen acquaintanceships. While this is admittedly a utopian proposal, our aim is to connect fresh ideas with those individuals who contribute to the development of
independent careers in architecture.
At the conclusion of the mailing, we will collect all 1000 images for a
catalogue and an exhibition with comments from selected recipients.
