The Archive
This site houses four sketchbooks by artist and teacher Christopher Alexander (1926-1982). It also hosts interviews with Christopher’s family and former students, and a number of paintings and drawings that were produced by students in his classes.
All four sketchbooks are reproduced with the generous assistance of Steven Alexander.
