"One of the basic everyday activities of human beings is to cover distances and move from one place to another. Starting in 1960, stanley brouwn's work concentrated on this activity. The rapidly sketched felt-tip drawings describe routes. brouwn asked people on the street how to get from A to B, requesting that they show him by drawing a map. Each drawing is personal; some are geometrical, while others use soft, flowing lines. brouwn stamped each drawing with the phrase "this way brouwn."
brouwn challenged the concept of authorship by delegating the production of drawings to people chosen randomly from the crowd. He also questioned the idea of artistic style by placing a stamp on the drawing where an artist's signature would usually appear. Every piece in the this way brouwn series was created in the time it took for each person to sketch their map."
