Russell Marks, Jr., presi-

_ dent of the Americas Society,

in his preface to the exhibi-

tion catalogue points out that

Erickson’s drawings and

models are works of art in
their own right.

“Erickson develops his
ideas with drawings and
models, following a process
of refinement surprisingly
akin to the traditional pro-

cesses of painting .and —

sculpture. Erickson is ad-
mired as a master architect
since his high international
reputation is established. by
assessment of completed
jobs,”’ said Marks.
