Scenographic Design Drawing

About this book

"Scenographic Design Drawing prompts scholarly debate on the set design drawings for theatre and live performance and highlights their unique qualities within the greater arena of drawing practice and theory. This volume addresses a critical research gap and encourages an interdisciplinary dialogue. Sue Field explores the undertheorized but highly complex interaction between performative and theatrical space, embodied in the scenographic design drawing, and also considers how scenographic design drawing, in which the palimpsest is the unique interface of 'time, motion, action and space' contributes to a different expanded drawn space. These central questions are of increasing significance, not only in the field of scenography but also to all disciplines that draw upon theatre and performance studies, fine art and architectural discourse"--
