ARCH286690
Description:
This item contains harmful materials including violent imagery. The drawing illustrates the discrete elements of an exhibition involving several large-scale installations. One of these installations shows a crane on which a net filled with mannequins is suspended; the mannequins are soaked in oil, in the words of the designers, to represent the impacts of oil spills on the global population. This image, however, suggests violence beyond environmental disasters.

DR1989:0001
Description:
- In organization, presentation, scale and in most details this drawing corresponds to the lower half of the submitted competition panel (DR1987:0359) for which it is a preparatory drawing. Inscriptions at upper left and upper centre are instructions to the draughtsman (possibly himself) who would transfer these drawings to the panel. There are several small changes made in the submitted panel but the most noticeable is the section of the plane shed concourse.

DR1987:0385
Description:
- This sheet contains a number of drawings, two of which are sketch elevations for airport buildings. While the upper complex has the scale and massing of many of Wright's Los Angeles Municipal Airport drawings, the lower drawing, with its tall observation tower standing out against a low station building, seems closer to his designs for Boeing Airport, Burbank, California (see DR1987:0391), or the Lehigh Airports Competition (see DR1987:0359).
