Alissa Anderson

Alissa Anderson directs publications and helps lead special projects at Studio Gang. With the office since 2009, she works closely with Jeanne Gang and others to develop books, writing, exhibitions, research, and related initiatives that share the Studio’s work and ideas with a variety of audiences. With Archivist and Librarian Andi Altenbach and Design Director Claire Cahan, she also helps curate and interpret the Studio’s growing collection of models, sketches, and other design records.

Alissa’s most recent project is the Studio’s new monograph, Studio Gang: Architecture, published by Phaidon in Summer 2020. She has led the Reveal, Reverse Effect, and Building book projects and co-led the Studio’s two exhibitions for the 16th International Venice Architecture Biennale. She also works directly with design teams on research and communication.

Alissa holds a master’s degree in Critical, Curatorial, and Conceptual Practices in Architecture (CCCP) from the Columbia University GSAPP and a Bachelor of Arts in English and Creative Writing from Northwestern University. Outside the office, she pursues her own writing and research and is an editor-at-large of the Avery Review.
