A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The Influence of Dance in Lawrence Halprin Spatial Drawings
Lawrence Halprin (1916–2009) is an American architect who is internationally well-known for having developed a prolific work especially in the field of landscaping and public spaces. His architectural legacy is directly influenced by his activity as a researcher in the field of interdisciplinarity, a work he exercised throughout his life in tandem with the avant-garde dancer Anna Halprin (1920).
The works and dance proposals of Anna Halprin as well as the projects that they developed together, determined his work and ways of doing and looking. Among these influences, there is one that stands out and that has to do with his way of graphing space and what happened in it. The architect firmly believed that the architectural graphic representation could include aspects such as movement. This paper aims to present part of these graphic works by Lawrence Halprin and to point out, in a critical way, how the experience of dance is present in them.
