Abstract

‘The Analogical City as a Critical Project’, Diaspora, curated by ScotPortfolio and Archifringe, The Lighthouse, Glasgow, 08 June 2019 – 31 August 2019.

The following documents an invited contribution to an exhibition entitled Diaspora, curated by ScotPortfolio for Archifringe, and displayed at The Lighthouse, Glasgow, 08 June 2019 – 31 August. ScotPortfolio are a platform and digital archive that celebrates and showcases the ideas, drawings and projects emerging from the five Scottish architecture schools. The exhibition presented drawings by contributors who studied in Scotland but are no longer based there to highlight Scotland’s diaspora of talented graduates. Exhibitors included Sam Jacob, Farshid Moussavi, Amin Taha, and others. The following pages compile an exhibition view and page extracts from the exhibition catalogue.
The authors contribution was a single drawing from a larger suite entitled ‘The Analogical City as a Critical Project,’ which tests the possibility and multidimensionality of Aldo Rossi’s notion of the analogical city as a critical project.
