Title:

Presentation drawing for The Silent Witnesses

Date:

1974-1979

Description:

Robert Butscher was the draughtsman of this presentation drawing. The drawing, along with the drawing DR1998:0092:002:006 in this file, were done as part of a Third Year Architecture analysis project at Cooper Union School of Architecture. As part of the project, he read a great many of the novels written by the authors represented by the five sets of structures. The drawings were based on measurements taken from the presentation model. They were completed in 1980 and gifted to John Hejduk by Butscher to use in his Masque of Medusa book.
