Late Winter Updates:
As New Orleans approaches a new phase in the rebuilding effort,
Project New Orleans is continuing to maintain a comprehensive repository
of both professional and academic work. Our goal is to collect and
catalog the design and planning dialogue. We are also compiling
a publication of selected works, cataloging the efforts of planning
and design processes. The exhibition at the African American Museum
in the Tremé neighborhood of New Orleans was held in the
final months of 2006, and was quite successful. Our website, www.project-neworleans.org
is still a work in progress, and we are devoted to getting your
work out to the general public. The website will make your work
accessible to the public, who can then visualize the projects as
their future.
We look forward to updating you. Thank you all for your contributions
to Project New Orleans, without which our endeavor would not be
so successful- keep them coming and stay tuned!

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS!
We urge you to submit your ideas, visionary and practical, large
and small, to Project New Orleans.
Project New Orleans is seeking to compile a record of all architectural
and planning proposals created for the post-Katrina rebuilding
of New Orleans. We seek projects at every scale – from the
architectural to the regional – and from all engaged in
thinking about futures for the city in physical terms. Students,
professionals, activists and all others – from the U.S.
and abroad and working under any auspices - are invited to submit
graphic and written material. This will be displayed on our website
as an interactive resource for the on-going process of rebuilding
and later compiled in a book, to be published in 2007. The project
is being collaboratively curated by Michael Sorkin, Carol Reese,
and Anthony Fontenot.
Project New Orleans has already organized an exhibition of student
projects devoted to New Orleans – over 300 boards –
that was previewed in the summer and will be comprehensively displayed
in October 2006. The Project is also actively engaged in organizing
community participation in discussions stimulated by the growing
body of work collected. We invite anyone who has undertaken a
graphic project for New Orleans to submit materials to:
Project New Orleans
attn: Carol Reese
School of Architecture
Richardson Memorial
Tulane University
New Orleans, LA 70118
Submissions should be formatted at 400 dpi (or better) and should
include sufficient textual information to make them self-explanatory
to viewers. Board size: either 30 x 40 or 40 x 30 inches. We prefer
jpgs and pdfs. Please include text description to accompany the
project in a word document.
