Opening Reception January 19, 2017 5:30-7:30pm
Hubbell Street Galleries
California College of the Arts, San Francisco
Curated by Andrew Kudless & Adam Marcus, with Clayton Muhleman
Emerging technologies of design and production have opened up new ways to engage with traditional practices of architectural drawing. This exhibition, organized by the CCA Digital Craft Lab, will take place in two of CCA’s new Hubbell Street Galleries. The first gallery will feature experimental drawings by architects who explore the relationship between code and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways we document, analyze, represent, and design the built environment.
The second gallery will include work by CCA Architecture students in Kinematic Code, a course taught by Clayton Muhleman that has been exploring procedural and robotic drawing techniques.
