Call for Lost Entries

The Shinkenchiku Residential Design Competition, 1965-2020

The exhibition ‘Call for Lost Entries: The Shinkenchiku Residential Design Competition, 1965-2020’, curated by Cathelijne Nuijsink aims to start a discussion on the effects of incomplete archives on architectural research and to appeal for greater diversity and inclusivity as well as multiple authorship in architectural historiography.

The research for this exhibition received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement 797002, “Architecture as a Cross-Cultural Exchange: The Shinkenchiku Residential Design Competition, 1965–2017.”

The exhibition was supported by the Creative Industries Fund NL, the Chair of the History and Theory of Urban Design, ETH Zürich and an ETH Career Seed Grant.
