This paper examines how the documents culled together to create Banco/Marco de pruebas (BMP) formulate Díaz's version of life under the regime-a story of institutional control resisted by artists like Diamela Eltit and Lotty Rosenfeld.

In the epic poem Amereida (1965) the Argentine poet Godofredo Iommi rewrites the story of the conquest, returning agency to the South American individual whose duty is to discover the “interior sea” of the continent through first-hand experience. By incorporating the Amereida into the philosophies at the heart of the Institute, the faculty ensured the lasting influence of this particular poem, as well as the fundamental role poetry would play and continues to play within the Institute’s projects. The return of poetics to architecture enabled a new conceptualization of what a school of architecture was capable of, and most significantly, established a space where poetry, art, and architecture could coexist.
This paper proposes to explore how the Institute of Architecture has utilized poetry in order to realize performances, artworks, and architecture since the 1950s. I will examine the Institute of Architecture’s most notable projects—the travesías (journeys into the wilderness) and Ciudad Abierta [Open City] (a site for the Institute faculty and students to collaborate, experiment, and build). Poetry was present in these projects both literally (at inaugurations, on plaques, etc.) and metaphorically (as a way of making art and architecture). The presence of poetry has and continues to bind the Institute’s projects together, further tangling the ostensibly separate disciplines of art and architecture.
