Drawing Study Symposium – 28 & 29 April 2023, Shatwell Farm

On Friday 28 and Saturday 29 April 2023, Drawing Matter hosted a study symposium in the archive at Shatwell Farm as part of the conference Drawings as Objects of Knowledge Part II: The Archive Nurtures a Culture of Circularity, convened by KU Leuven and TU Delft.

In addition to presentations by invited applicants, the symposium included a special session on Alison and Peter Smithson’s drawings for Upper Lawn, loaned for the occasion by the Smithson family, and concluded with a visit to the building itself.
