MASTER DRAWINGS NEW YORK

Celebrating its 20th anniversary edition, Master Drawings New York is the premier U.S. art fair for drawings, featuring exceptional works on paper from all periods, as well as paintings, photographs, and sculpture presented by 36 international exhibitors on New York's Upper East Side.

Poetry, Music, Architecture presents drawings that reflect the natural connection between sound, language, and built form: three ways we shape and experience the world. Like a sonnet’s structure, musical notation, or an architect’s blueprint, drawing becomes a tool for thinking, planning, and giving form to ideas. Of the three media, music alone is formless in its completed state, yet it continues to inspire artists who work with and through structure. Poetry, music, and architecture share rhythm, harmony, and cadence. The works by Richard Artschwager, Barry Le Va, Louis I. Kahn, Julia Fish, and Jorinde Voigt each engage with language, sound, and structure in unique ways. Together, their art offers a new understanding of the interconnected nature of words, rhythm, and space-one that puts drawing at the centre of this triple Venn diagram, the core condition for thought to become form.
