How to Design a Car

Bryon Fitzpatrick's public program ‘How to Design a Car’ on 29 October at Toowoomba Motor Museum for artisan's touring exhibition Industrial Desire.

Parsons Brinckerhoff Industrial Desire Breakfast at artisan

Last week artisan hosted a special Industrial Desire breakfast event for Parsons Brinckerhoff in our gallery. The breakfast featured a presentation by Bryon Fitzpatrick, leading Industrial Designer and Professor Emeritus of Industrial Design, which included Bryon's demonstrations of drawing techniques in hand rendering concept vehicles (see images above). Bryon's fantastic presentation impressed the guests with their backgrounds in transport design and engineering and the breakfast was a great success! Parsons Brinckerhoff have kindly donated to the artisan foundation fund and we hope to continue our relationship with them in the future.

We thought we would share some photos documenting installation of our current show Industrial Desire. All of the photos are courtesy of the curator of Industrial Desire, Leon Fitzpatrick. Enjoy the behind the scenes look at the installation process.

Industrial Desire is on display at artisan until 28 August 2010.
