Canstruction
Bring a can of food and feast your imagination! Teams of architects, engineers, and contractors were given one night to build structures out of canned and boxed food for the 17th Annual Canstruction competition, organized by AIANY, the Society for Design Administration, and the New York Design Center. The cans will be donated to City Harvest, and since its inception, 10 million pounds of food have been donated to aid in the fight against hunger.

Land Grab
The artworks on view explore the process of claiming and naming a piece of land. Contrary to work in the 1960s and 1970s that considered unused or abandoned territories as blank slates, every piece integrates socioeconomic, historical, and political contexts.
