Description

The American Land Museum is a museum in and about the landscape of the United States. It presents a reflection of the physical national fabric as a constructed document, on which the culture and history of the Nation is inscribed. The museum is a curated informational entity, presented primarily through the internet, where a website will provide a portal through which to experience the museum. The project also has physical components, including intermittent movable and fixed interpretive centers that serve as access points for experiencing the land as museum, as well as brochures and other printed publications.
