BLACKDOCK BELIEVES IN THE POWER OF ARCHITECTURE TO INFLUENCE THE SPIRITUAL WORLD — NOT JUST THE BUILDING ITSELF, BUT ARCHITECTURE-RELATED DRAWINGS, PHOTOGRAPHS, AND PAINTINGS CAN BE VIEWED INDEPENDENTLY AS ARCHITECTURE. Since the 1980s, Black Duck's work has been frequently exhibited in universities and art galleries around the world, with many installation types being actually built in different countries and generating dialogue with society. The collection of the Book of Arts and Sciences is not only the book itself, but a complete collection of the Dark Arts building.
Mask of Medusa was a collection of works by Black Duck from 1947 to 1983. Centered on the eve of the first Venice Biennale of Architecture in 1978, centered on a seminar organized by the University of Venice's Institute of Architecture (IUAV), Black Duck and other architects were invited to individually design a paper house in the Canareggio district of Venice's Old Town.
