THE EXHIBITION

Architectonic, adjective

1 : of, relating to, or according with the principles of architecture : ARCHITECTURAL

2 : having an organized and unified structure that suggests an architectural design

This all-media exhibition will highlight works that are inspired by architecture or that incorporate architectural elements. Works may depict actual architectural forms, or may approach the theme less literally by incorporating grids or other structural lines. The visual language of drafting, such as plans, elevations, and cross-sections, may also be utilized in the artwork.
