Last December, 31-year-old David van der Leer asked his employers at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum for a title bump. His request (which was granted) required onlj reprinting assistant curator of architecture and design on his business card-and replacing "design" with "urban studies." And yet it suggests that van der Leer is further evidence of a shift that takes architectural curation from museum walls onto city streets, from observation to experience, and from lessons learned to learning lessons. The first show that van der Leer co-curated after joining the Guggenheim in 2008 was "Frank Lloyd Wright: From Within Outward" (May 2009). With more than 200 archival drawings, models, and animations, the exhibition drew unprecedented crowds, but van der Leer nevertheless remains circumspect. "The Wright show was the most popular show in the museum's history and all of that, which is great," he says. "But if there's so much potential to do architecture shows, then we want to do something different."

Guggenheim Museum）的老板要求获得头衔。他的要求（已获批准）要求在名片上重新印刷建筑和设计的助理馆长，并用“城市研究”代替“设计”。然而，这表明范德莱尔进一步证明了这一转变，即将建筑策展从博物馆的墙壁转移到城市的街道上，从观察到经验，从教训到学习。 van der Leer于2008年加入古根海姆美术馆后共同策划的第一场展览是“弗兰克·劳埃德·赖特：从内而外”（2009年5月）。展览有200多个档案图纸，模型和动画，吸引了空前的人群，但范德勒仍然保持谨慎。他说：“赖特表演是博物馆历史上最受欢迎的表演，所有这些都很棒。” “但是，如果有足够的潜力进行建筑展示，那么我们想做些不同的事情。”
