Hours
Wed–Fri 11 am–6 pm Sat 12 am–5 pm

Marked by great formal sophistication and sensitivity, Peter Wilson’s practice is motivated by an interest in the imaginative and figurative possibilities of architecture, which are in this exhibition presented through a selection over 80 works of drawings, paintings and models from a series of five projects created between 1983 and the present.

The Architectural Association School of Architecture (AA) of the 1970s and 1980s has been described as the ‘Indian Summer of Hand Drawing’. Peter Wilson explains: ”We did not know at the time that a digital eclipse was around the corner. Now some years later some of us pencil holding dinosaurs are being visited by scholars of ancient technologies”. This exhibition maps a few moments in the intervening years.
