The archive champions works that are vulnerable to institutional neglect, cultural bias, or politically unpopular content. By providing both physical and virtual venues, it hosts time-based art, installation art, and periodicals. A public digital database documents these fleeting creations, ensuring that unforeseen contemporary avant-garde artforms survive beyond their initial staging.
