speculative chicago: a compendium of architectural innovation
an exhibition [25 february - 29 march 2003] and catalogue
proposing chicago as a test bed for innovation, gallery 400 and the school of architecture, university of illinois at chicago join forces to sponsor an exhibition and catalogue intended to raise awareness of the city's current architectural activity. by revealing and asserting the vitality of chicago as a location for speculation, the exhibition and catalogue will catalyze discussion of chicago as a site for innovative architectural practices. speculative chicago will bring together architects, designers,theorists and other `speculators' who demonstrate that innovation concerning the built environment continues to thrive in the `city that works.' their multifarious works treat the idea of speculation in numerous
ways:
· the assumption of risk in hope of gain
· meditating on or pondering a subject
· as suggestion, testing, and examination
· curiosity and questioning
· as theoretical, rather than demonstrable, tactics
· in virtual and physical manifestations
proposed conceptual foci for the exhibition include [but are not limited
to]:
research theoretical ideas and other work that questions current assumptions with new strategies, tactics and techniques: texts, drawings, film/video, etc.
fabrications constructed works at various scales that pursue innovation byappropriating contemporary technical and production intelligence:
mock-ups, experimental structures and/or environments, prototypes, etc.
projects architectural works that demonstrate contemporary insight and/or significant contribution to ongoing debate concerning the built environment: built projects, unbuilt projects, products, competition entries, speculative projects, etc.
networks urban works that demonstrate contemporary insight and/or significant contribution to ongoing debate concerning public space: urban planning, landscapes, infrastructures, etc.
events
activities and actions at various scales that propose new relationships within the city: performances, exhibitions, etc.
eligibility
submitted work must be ``in,' ``from,' or ``for' chicago [i.e., work inchicago by speculators currently working in the city, projects for places outside of chicago by speculators working in chicago, or projects set in chicago by speculators from other places]. student work is not eligible for inclusion in the exhibition.
speculator/curators, and those chosen for inclusion in the exhibit will be notified by 28 november 2002. entrants chosen for inclusion in the exhibit will be asked to provide 2-3 pages for the catalogue that will accompany the exhibit.
