Michael Webb: Two Journeys (inbunden, eng)

Two Journeys is the firsat comprehensive monograph on the work of Michael Webb, an artist who is also a trained architect and who operates at the intersection of the two disciplines. He is widely known for creatively exploring the boundaries of drawing techniques, specifically perspectival projection.

Webb''s aspirations for and re-conceptions of both built and natural environments are revealed between a twenty-year study on perspective projection that utilizes as its subjects the Regatta Course at Henley-on-Thames in England, and early work, some of which was done in conjunction with Archigram, an avant-garde group concerned with theorizing and critiquing architecture which formed during the 1960s at the Architectural Association in London.

The publication connects nearly sixty years of the artist''s work into a continuously evolving narrative about the relationship between architecture, the automobile, and landscape. Webb''s work investigates these relationships using notions of time, space, and speed, and analogue drawing tools such as pencil and collage, which are often rendered later in oil paint.

The book features over 150 drawings: artistic works rooted in analytical thinking and structured around architectural elements and notational systems.
