Drawing Matter

Drawing Matter | a3 UniBo | Scoop.it
Drawing Matter begins with the drawing itself. Our interest is in architectural drawings that fall under the rubric of architecture and prompt us to think again: about the practice of drawing, about the intentions and conventions created by drawings, about the real and imaginary architectures they produce; what drawings might be ‘for’ and what the designer’s hand might be showing, or doing, that the building cannot.
Alessio Erioli's insight:

An excellent series of articles and first-hand reports on the drawing as a tool for dissection, investigation, creativity and research, revealing often forgotten links and paths and unsuspecting connections. What links Aldo Rossi with Jesse Reiser? Or Stan Allen with Rafael Moneo? How did Zaha embedded context relations in her drawings? Why were early Zaha and OMA sketches so similar that they could be mistakenly attributed?

This isn't a drawing revival nostalgic post, rather the opposite: an invitation to move beyond the drawing by understand contemporary medium and technium as the same kind of apparatus shaping our subject-knowledge and the object of our attention/creation with the same critical attitude and exploratory intent.
