l Libeskind, in his architecture, uses drawings as well as the signs and symbols. He claims that the drawings are the production of the mind; in fact, there is a feedback loop in this process. We are drawing while at the same time thinking and drawings can affect our way of thinking. Reversely, our thinking also affects how and what we draw. His usage of sign and symbols are the abstract elements in the composition of his drawings. They are involved into the drawings sometimes involuntarily and voluntarily. Libeskind mostly is interested with the process of drawing and tries to search for new possibilities and also tracing what is existing. __________________________ Libeskind, Daniel. ‘Building’, in Breaking Ground- Adventures in Life and Architecture (NY: Riverhead Books, 2004), pp. 77102 http://myhero.com/hero.asp?hero=d_libeskind Identity http://deathofdrawing.com/daniel-libeskind-on-drawing/ DANIEL LIBESKIND http://www.dezeen.com/2013/02/28/architecturaldrawings-by-daniel-libeskind-at-ermanno-tedeschi-gallery/ Page | 13 BEYOND ARCHITECTURE | SUMMER 2015 | ISSUE 1
