the line fell off the page
15 Jun - 16 Jul
Contemporary drawing from local, national and international artists and designers.
Curated by Tara D'cruz-Noble & Emil Goh
Suejin Chung, Tatty Devine, Ian Geraghty, Emil Goh, Ben Long, Eline McGeorge, Ben Morieson, Liam D’cruz-Noble, Juliane Otterbach, Josh Petherick, Kat McLeod/3 Deep Publishing, MeeNa Park, SASA, Stefan Saffer, Gemma Smith and Soppcollective.
Focusing on drawing in contemporary practice where artists investigate the medium beyond the traditional use of line on paper, works have been sourced from across various disciplines including art, design and fashion. Using unexpected materials such as dust, light, thread and wood, artists push the idea of drawing beyond usual preconceptions. Some have been created in unusual places; on the back of haulage vans travelling to and from a London market, high above Sydney skyscrapers at night and in the Braille-embossed pages of a Western story. New Drawing presents work by both established and emerging Australian and international artists.
To accompany the exhibition there will be a full colour catalogue designed by Soppcollective.
New Drawing is a Parallel Program of the 2004 Biennale of Sydney.
