Three years ago, JAMES DRAKE began the ambitious project of creating 1,242 drawings that would trace and reference all of the developments of his multifaceted career. Known as both a sculptor and video artist, Drake has always considered draftsmanship to be a key to his process, and this body of drawings does not disappoint.
The volume is published to accompany a touring exhibition (titled The Anatomy of Drawing and Space) opening at The Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in July 2014–the largest show of Drake’s work to date. This book follows the success of Red Drawings & White Cut-outs (Radius Books, 2012).
