Lars Lerup (Växjö, SW 1940 – 2025 Houston), “House for an Independent Woman,” 1983, felt-tip pen over pencil on cut-out pages from a notepad, each titled and dated “Oct. 30, ’83” and “Nov. 8, Nov. 83," the drawing on the right additionally titled in pencil "Condom(inion)'s view from the Colorado River," each 21 x 14 cm, mounted together between two glass tops in an aluminum frame, overall size: 32.5 x 41.5 cm. Limit 360,- The drawing is related to Lerup’s famous speculative project “Texas Zero,” which depicts a country house or retreat for a modern, self-reliant, and “independent woman” on the Colorado River in Texas. The project was extensively documented in his influential book “Planned Assaults” (1987). Here, Lerup uses the drawing not merely as a set of construction plans, but as a critical-philosophical discourse on domestic structures and social conventions. In particular, the feminist perspective on architecture presented here is extraordinary and was groundbreaking at the time.
