VILCEK FOUNDATION – JAMES LENG

The Vilcek Foundation raises awareness of immigrant contributions in America and fosters appreciation of the arts and sciences.

The Vilcek Prizes are awarded annually to immigrants who have made lasting contributions to American society through their extraordinary achievements in biomedical research and the arts and humanities.

James Leng won the 2018 Creative Promise Prize in Architecture for his investigations into the role of defunct buildings and his vision for public, social uses of infrastructure.
