His projects from the mid-1980s until the end of his life have been widely published. However, this \u003ci\u003eAD\u003c\/i\u003e, in collaboration with the Estate of Lebbeus Woods, explores the earlier period beginning in the late 1960s when Woodswas honing his draughtsmanship and theoretical positions while experimenting with a variety of themes and different modes of expression.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhen he burst onto the international architectural scene with a solo exhibition and accompanying catalogue (\u003ci\u003eLebbeus Woods: Origins\u003c\/i\u003e) at the Architectural Association, London, in 1985, some wondered how anyone could emerge so fully formed, from nowhere. Working against the logic of ‘nowhere’, this issue charts his early trajectory through the largely unpublished drawings and texts, linking them with what came after. Aiming to generate new scholarship, its roster of international interdisciplinary critics and commentators offer a new understanding of Woods’s work and of his formative years, also shining a light on how we might think about the ‘early work’ of any architect’s career.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContributors: \u003c\/b\u003eJoseph Becker, Aaron Betsky, Peter Cook, Mark Dorrian, Riet Eeckhout, Kevin Erickson, Joerg Gleiter\u003cb\u003e,\u003c\/b\u003e Sharon Irish, Eliyahu Keller, Lawrence Rinder, Ashley Simone, Ben Sweeting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAleksandra Wagner\u003c\/b\u003e, Ph.D., is a Professor Emerita The New School University, Member, Training and Supervising Analyst and Faculty at the National Psychological Association for Psychoanalysis, and a psychoanalyst in private practice in New York City.
