This book explores, debates and exhibits practices of contemporary
architectural drawing, taking at its basis a series of meetings
between a cohort of architects, critics and curators who discussed
contemporary drawing practices and production in their own work and
research. The participants - Laura Allen, Bryan Cantley, Nat Chard,
Peter Cook, Mark Dorrian, Riet Eeckhout, Adrian Hawker, Perry
Kulper, CJ Lim, Shaun Murray, Mark Smout, Neil Spiller, Natalija
Subotincic, Michael Webb, Mark West and Michael Young - focused on
drawings or drawing-related artefacts, around which dialogues took
place. Beyond the usual representational imperatives of
architecture drawing, the group considered and discussed its agency
as a site of emergence and imagination. Organised in relation to
specific topics and framed by contextual essays by Nat Chard, Mark
Dorrian, Riet Eeckhout, Michael Young, Thomas-Bernard Kenniff and
Carole Levesque, the book includes a selection of exquisite and
fascinating key drawings by the various contributors, together with
edited transcripts of discussions around drawing which developed at
the symposia. The drawings presented in the book are in dialogue
with one another, while their authors are themselves in extended
conversation. This double aspect will make the book a distinctive
publication and an enduringly important document and resource for
thinking about architectural drawing.
