Gallery II: Human Curation

Archives, Institutions, and Control

“Who gets to tell the story of Katrina?”
“Whose memories become history?”
“What is preserved—and what is erased?”

Page Title

Human institutions shape how disasters are recorded, remembered, and publicly understood. Gallery 1 examines how media outlets, government agencies, and cultural institutions curated Hurricane Katrina through selective storytelling—foregrounding certain narratives while silencing others. By tracing these acts of curation, this gallery exposes how power shapes memory long before we encounter the archive.
