Each year, the Western European Architecture Foundation awards the Gabriel Prize-a
$20,000 grant for the study of classical architecture and landscape in
France. Prize winners embark on a three-month itinerary of their own
devising. While abroad, Gabriel laureates focus on some particular
aspect of French architecture: for one recent laureate that meant the
monastic cloisters of provincial France; for another, the arcades of
Paris. Whatever their individual program, prize-winners work closely
with the Foundation’s European representative, a Parisian architect who
is available for regular criticism and discussion. This provides one
constant in the laureates’ time abroad. Drawing provides another. Prize
winners spend much of their sabbatical sketching, measuring, and, in the
course of three months, producing three large drawings. In the process,
each laureate comes to know some of the masterpieces of France.
