Maura Lucking, assistant professor of the history of architecture in the 51ÁÔÆæ School of Architecture & Urban Planning, is the recipient of the 2026 Morris Fromkin Memorial Grant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucking\u2019s project is titled “Contested Sovereignties: Visions of Land and Housing Reform by Wisconsin Oneida Activist Laura Cornelius Kellogg.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucking will investigate Oneida activist Laura Cornelius Kellogg\u2019s Lolomi<\/em> plan, a proposed urban development initiative based on Europe\u2019s Garden City movement. The plan envisioned self-sustained and self-governed greenbelt villages that would support the expansion of the Six Nations Confederacy land base. Lucking will also describe how Kellogg\u2019s Progressive Era ideals and controversial methods of raising capital shape the perception of Kellogg and the Lolomi<\/em> plan today.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis research,\u201d Lucking said, \u201cgrounds Kellogg\u2019s flawed vision for indigenous sovereignty in her lived experiences as a Wisconsin Oneida woman while also asking difficult questions about why many Oneida have not embraced her legacy.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kellogg\u2019s published writings and speeches will serve as a foundation for the research as Lucking explores the activist\u2019s housing, land reform, and public health ideas, as well as her boosterism of the Lolomi <\/em>plan.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Fromkin Grant will be used to examine archival materials in Washington, D.C., Madison, and the Oneida Nation, as well as conduct community-engaged interviews with indigenous scholars and thinkers. Lucking will use the Fromkin Memorial Collection at 51ÁÔÆæ to explore the housing reform work Kellogg participated in as a student in Milwaukee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucking will present the results of her research at the Morris Fromkin Memorial Lecture in fall 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucking has previous publishing credits in journals such as Architectural Theory Review<\/em> and Journal of Architectural Education<\/em>. Prior to her appointment in 2022 to 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s School of Architecture & Urban Planning, Lucking was a fellow at the Temple Hoyne Buell Center for the Study of American Architecture & Society of Fellows\/Heyman Center for the Humanities at Columbia University. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The amount of the grant is $6,000. This year\u2019s Fromkin committee members include Michael Doylen, Max Yela, Rachel Baum, Gabriela Nagy, Kumkum Sangari, and Mark Freeland. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Established by Morris Fromkin\u2019s family and supported by an endowment from Fromkin\u2019s grandson, Daniel Soyer,\u00a0the lecture series, dedicated to social justice, is the longest running lecture series on campus. The program is administered by the 51ÁÔÆæ Libraries.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
