Resumen de The aesthetic influence of photography in the representation of architecture
Amparo Bernal López-Sanvicente
Spain architectural representation has, over the past fifty years, evolved from abstraction to photographic hyperrealism. In the nineteen-sixties, when black and white architectural photography had gained artistic independence, the contrasting duality of black and white reflected the artistic quality of architectural drawings published in specialist journals. The aesthetic criteria of architectural representation remained in vogue, even when computer-assisted design had become commonplace. The real graphic revolution has developed since the late nineteen-nineties, almost coinciding with the new Millennium, when architectural drawing abandoned abstraction for the photographic hyperrealism of digital imagery and video.
