DRAWING ROOM EXHIBITION

DAVID NOLAN GALLERY

New York | 2016

Drawing Room is an exhibition curated by Markus Dochantschi, founder of studioMDA and architect of David Nolan Gallery. The show brought together a wide array of artists dealing with complex notions of space and form, exploring repetition, volume and emptiness, and interiority vs. exteriority. From Markus Dochantschi: “My very first introduction to architecture, other than walking through space, was behind the lens of my father’s 1963 Exacta 35 mm camera. My fascination to capture space, memorialize, and flatten it into two-dimensional media became an obsession in my teenage years. This very obsession turned into my passion for art and architecture: a constant exchange and dialogue between two-dimensional architectural drawings, perspectives, and three-dimensional computer animations. The selected twenty-one artists have fundamentally influenced architects and architecture, and will continue to do so for many generations to come.”
