Studies of abstract shapes in architectonic forms and shapes are the mainstays of Dato’ Tajuddin Ismail’s Boxscape Series in the late 1980s. With his background in Interior Architecture, Dato’ Tajuddin explored the intricacies of forms and space by contemporary architects like Richard Meier, Tado Ando, Frank Gehry and Zaha Hadid, in stand-alone drawings arranged in horizontal grids. This artwork previously had a L-shape tear of approximately 5cm by 2cm. It is now properly restored. Dato’ Tajuddin graduated in Graphic Design at the Art Centre College of Design in Los Angeles, the United States, in 1974.
