Résumé:
Why did early modern architects continue copying drawings long after the invention of print should have made such copying obsolete? Carolyn Yerkes answers that question in a fresh investigation into the status of architectural drawing in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Her book explores a vast network of manuscripts and drawings that each have information about ancient and modern buildings—including the Pantheon and Saint Peter’s—that is not known from any other sources. The drawings also show how the information was recorded, transferred, and analyzed by others. Yerkes examines the nature of architectural evidence to understand how Renaissance architects used images to explore structures, create biographies, and write history.

Prior to the 1970s, buildings were commonly understood to be the goal of architectural practice; architectural drawings were seen simply as a means to an end.

Résumé:
Prior to the 1970s, buildings were commonly understood to be the goal of architectural practice; architectural drawings were seen simply as a means to an end. But, just as the boundaries of architecture itself were shifting at the end of the twentieth century, the perception of architectural drawings was also shifting; they began to be seen as autonomous objects outside the process of building. In Drawing on Architecture, Jordan Kauffman offers an account of how architectural drawings—promoted by a network of galleries and collectors, exhibitions and events—emerged as aesthetic objects and ultimately attained status as important cultural and historical artifacts, and how this was both emblematic of changes in architecture and a catalyst for these changes.

Résumé:
For decades, Philip Ashforth Coppola has meticulously documented the New York City subway in a series of extraordinary drawings, detailing the terracotta mosaics, faience, and tile patterns that millions of riders pass by every day. Coppola's drawings are what "Hyperallergic" calls "the most encyclopedic history of the art and architecture of the New York City subway system." Along with Coppola's intricate ink drawings are anecdotes he assembled through painstaking research involving hundreds of hours poring through microfilms to discover the names behind the artisanship of what is rightly called New York's largest public art work---its legendary subway system. Philip Ashforth Coppola's drawings have been featured in the New York Times, "Hyperallergic", and on the BBC and are included in the New York Transit Museum's permanent collection. Foreword by Jonathan Lethem.

Résumé:
''Making Marks'' showcases the private sketchbooks of the world's most visually inventive architects, revealing just how much drawing by hand informs great contemporary architecture. Taking a post-digital perspective, the sixty renowned architects whose work is collected here show how drawing and new forms of manual presentation have been refined since the reawakening of this basic technique. Notepads, stacks of paper, pencils and fine-point pens are as present in the architect's studio as phalanxes of screens. Revealing why and how hand-drawing still matters, this global survey presents the freehand drawings, vibrant watercolours and abstract impressions of rising talents and well-known names, including Jun Igarashi and Brian MacKay-Lyons.

Résumé:
The period between the 1950s and the 1970s saw the flourishing of a number of radical movements in architecture throughout Europe, producing a wide range of experimental expression. 'Cloud ’68' presents a selection of 173 graphic pieces—including lithographs, drawings, original etchings, and ephemera—that together give a sense of the diverse approaches that thrived in those years. Drawing from the personal collection of the Chilean architect Smiljan Radic, the book features works by Constant, Guy Debord, Asger Jorn, Haus-Rucker-Co, Archigram, Utopie, Superstudio, and many others. Apart from essays by Tom McDonough and Lara Schrijver Cloud ’68 contains interview fragments by the critic and curator Hans Ulrich Obrist, who talked to the key figures of these movements.

Résumé:
De Jacopo Bellini à Eugène Delacroix, six cents carnets d'artistes et albums de collectionneurs, conservés au musée du Louvre, permettent de mieux comprendre le processus créatif des maîtres qui les ont exécutés, et d'apprécier le goût des amateurs qui se sont attachés à les constituer. Ces oeuvres précieuses et fragiles demeurent pour la plupart méconnues. Certaines d'entre elles, reproduites pour la première fois dans leurs dimensions d'origine et accompagnées d'une étude inédite, invitent désormais le public le plus large possible au plaisir de la découverte. "Après un séjour de quelques années à Rome, il faut revenir dans ses foyers... Mais il faut avoir bien employé son temps et fait une ample moisson d'études et de dessins pour s'en servir à propos, quand on est éloigné des pays dont l'aspect a électrisé notre âme et agrandi notre talent." Nul doute que le jeune peintre toulousain, Pierre Flenri de Valenciennes, employa bien son temps pendant son séjour italien, entre 1777 et 1785.

Résumé:
''Regards dessinés sur le monde'' est plus qu'un simple recueil de dessins, c'est un voyage. Bernard Gachet, architecte globe-trotter, nous emmène sur les traces des civilisations passées aux travers des vestiges rencontrés de par le monde au cours de ses différents voyages réalisés depuis 1976. Bernard Gachet est un voyageur passionné, il parcourt le monde à la manière des "amateurs" du XVIIIe siècle. Carnet et crayon à la main, il dessine et choisit pour nous ce que privilégie son oeil d'architecte : la diversité et la beauté des traces de l'histoire et des cultures. Comme pour mieux comprendre le monde. Le dessin se fait ici éloge de la lenteur et du passé, en plus d'être un fascinant moyen de connaissance et de découverte.

Résumé:
How do you find out about historic buildings and places? A good place to start is with visual evidence. Original drawings, topographical views, surveys, maps, photographs, and other historic visual sources help to support an understanding of how a building or location appears the way it does today. Interpreting such material requires knowledge of historic design and mapping conventions, the place of the drawings in the construction process, the methods and techniques used to create engraved or topographical views, and the equipment and processes used in photography at particular times. The authors of this book explain the provenance, purpose, and terminology of a range of visual sources from the sixteenth to the twentieth century, and explore how they can help—or sometimes hinder—an understanding of the original form and subsequent changes to a building, site, or landscape.
