“Architecture is spatial as well as temporal thus there is no place for symbols, which become merely decorations.”

“For PATI (the Public Arts Trust of India), Public Art isn't just sculptures or murals in public spaces. Each Edition of Jaipur Art Week and Jodhpur Arts Week helps to redefine the term 'public art' by extending its reach by building discourse around urban spaces and heritage structures as sites for engagement to inspire new perspectives, reflection, and a sense of community.”

“The intersection of art and space technology opens up a new domain for us. I once said that what science cannot address art can, and vice versa.”

Álvaro Siza Vieira: Thinking Through Drawing
Álvaro Siza Vieira: Thinking Through Drawing
MAY 08-
Aura Space, Braga, PT
Thinking Through Drawing brings together Álvaro Siza Vieira’s recent sketches, drawings, and research—spanning architectural plans from Braga to Croatia, design studies, and figurative explorations. In times dominated by digital interfaces, this exhibition invites us to reconsider the irreplaceable thought process, ideas and intimacy of the hand-drawn line that emerge.
Rather than presenting a traditional curatorial text, through the following interview we center the architect’s own voice. Through a series of dialogues, Siza reflects on how drawing as an action functions as —a space where intuition, memory, knowledge and precision collide. Here, drawings are not preparation or study work but acts of thinking in its raw form made visible. We invite you to the architect’s process as it unfolds, —and to consider what might be lost if we abandon analog ways of seeing.
Curated by Lucija Šutej with drawings’ selection with Álvaro Siza Vieira.
