68020: Drawings and plans from the Arthur Erickson Fonds at the Canadian Architectural Archives

In early 2016, Musagetes, an international arts foundation, launched two inter-related programs: (1) the ArtsEverywhere online platform (ArtsEverywhere.ca) and (2) a rhizomatically expanding series of Trans-national Projects in São Paulo, New York, Dakar, and elsewhere. Both of these programs, in addition to Musagetes’ long-term city programs, are based on a belief that many of the most powerful disruptions to our society’s flawed systems and institutions come from positions of struggle—from those on the front lines and those in solidarity with them.
