Nicholas Olsberg: Diplomatics and Instrumentality of the Drawing / William Butterfield

On Friday 28 and Saturday 29 April Drawing Matter hosted a study symposium in the archive at Shatwell Farm, part of the conference Drawings as Objects of Knowledge Part II: The Archive Nurtures a Culture of Circularity, convened by KU Leuven and TU Delft. In addition to presentations by invited applicants, the symposium included a special session on Alison and Peter Smithson’s drawings for Upper Lawn, loaned for the occasion by the Smithson family, and concluded with a visit to the building itself. This film is part of series of posts of selected papers from the study symposium.

He is currently completing a major study of William Butterfield, and a documentary publication on the conception, construction, and reception of Richard Neutra’s Lovell Health House, both to be published in 2024.
