- Ente OrganizzatoreYale school of architecture
Since the early Renaissance, drawing has been the architect's primary instrument of investigation and expression. However, the sophisticated methodologies offered by digital technology over the past decade have challenged the practice, leading to the question Is drawing dead? This symposium, organized by the Yale School of Architecture, will explore the historic role of architectural drawing practice and illuminate the challenges it confronts today.
The symposium begins on Thursday, February 9, at 6:30 pm, with a lecture by Massimo Scolari, the William B. and Charlotte Shepherd Davenport Visiting Professor at the School of Architecture. This will be followed by an opening reception for the exhibition Massimo Scolari: The Representation of Architecture, 1967–2012, which is on view in the School of Architecture Gallery from February 6 through May 4, 2012.
