Description

Focusing on the creative and inventive significance of drawing for architecture, Drawinghighlights the work of key contemporary figures who have, through their drawn work, affected the course of architectural thinking. Drawing charts the forward movement and expansion of drawing iconography, techniques and methodologies, and moves logically from such conditions as Victorian romanticism; Modernist heroics, Minimalism, diagrams, the representation (and inspiration) of movement, technology and motive power; through to notions and examples of digital automatism. Includes drawings by Sverre Fehn, Mark Goulthorpe, Zaha Hadid, Ron Herron, Tom Kovak, Enric Miralles, Marcus Novak , Cedric Price, Wolf Prix and Lebbeus Woods.
