This volume complements a two-part exhibition that looks at The Museum of Modern Art's drawings collection from a nonchronological viewpoint. It explores visual relationships between artworks in six different groupings--Faces, Movement, Tectonics, Digital, Figures, and Constructions--emphasizing repetition, seriality, and permutations of themes, structures, and motifs through the placement and juxtaposition of works. Essay by Luis Perez-Oramas.
