The aim of the?Architecture in Comic Strip Form? exhibition is to shed light on an unusual type of architectural visualization. The exhibition shows how architects use comic strips to create their own works, collaborate with other professionals, communicate their ideas and concepts, and convey architectural criticism. Although traditional architectural drawings are well suited for identifying problems, visualizing solutions, and providing precise information about technical details, scale, and design, they are often difficult for laypeople to interpret. Many architects have therefore chosen to use the comic strip medium?s distinctive mix of words and images to supplement their conventional visual representations. The genre?s characteristic imagery, onomatopoeia, speech and thought balloons, and capacity to present a variety of cross-sections and perspectives are used to create stories about people?s encounters with architecture. The combination of text and imagery makes it possible to express a complex message in a readily understandable and succinct manner, in a visual style that is accessible to a wider audience. The exhibition presents around eighty works, most of which are comics that architects have created by themselves, commissioned, or collaborated on with comic strip artists.00Exhibition: The National Museum?
