Exhibition Marjan and Marko Mušič: The Art of Architectural Drawing

The exhibition Marjan and Marko Mušič: The Art of Architectural Drawing, organised by the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts (SAZU), will open on Wednesday, 6 May, at the SASA Gallery of Science and Technology, at 6 p.m.

The exhibition offers an extraordinary insight into a century of architectural drawing as well as into the creative dialogue between two great figures of Slovenian architecture, Marjan and his son Marko M. Mušič.

The selection of works showcases that drawing in architecture is not merely a sketch or a technical preparation, but an essential means of research, reflection and creation. The works on display reveal how an architectural idea emerges between intuition and analysis, tradition and contemporaneity, personal expression and spatial order. Special emphasis is placed on the enduring importance of hand-drawn works, which remain irreplaceable even in the age of digital design, as they provide the most direct link between the architect’s thoughts and the resulting form.

The exhibition simultaneously sheds light on the similarities and differences between the approaches of two generations, Marjan and Marko Mušić, and raises the broader question of what remains essential, lasting, and human in architecture.
