Product Information
Drawing Parallels encourages us to look at architecture in a new way. Rather than offering conventional views of canonical buildings, Quintin Lake's photographs explore architecture as the physical world around us, from man-made structures to natural forms. Despite the fact that these photographs come from many countries, they suggest a world we can all relate to: children playing on steps; urban underground railways; lovers embracing; entrances to houses. In seven thematic sections that deal with form, surface, space, shelter, memory, ideology and urbanity, the very notion of architecture is redefined as an inherent quality of everything we perceive in the world. Through pairings of photographs - a clear and accessible format - Lake suggest to us the possibility of seeing anew the places and spaces we inhabit and move through each day.Product Identifiers
