Read short texts by students on the Architectural Association’s History and Critical Thinking programme written in response to drawings from the collection. The texts were produced during a week-long workshop in the archive.
On the 16th March, Drawing Matter alongside Anna Bortolozzi (Stockholm University) and Elizabeth Merrill (Ghent University) and in collaboration with the Sir John Soane’s Museum, will host a full day workshop. It aims to bring together historians, architects, artists, museum professionals and conservationists in the examination of early modern architectural drawings produced by tracing.
Three drawings from the Drawing Matter Collection have been reproduced for Rome in the World at Fondazione MAXXI in Rome, curated by Ricky Burdett.
Drawing Matter editors Rosie Ellison-Balaam and Maria Mitsoula feature in the latest issue of Stoà. Their text Working (with) Drawings from the Drawing Matter Collection discusses the formation of the collection alongside a description of a workshop run with the University of Edinburgh. It explores how our drawings can become a brief in themselves.
