About the Event
DRAW – What is Contemporary Drawing and What Can It All Be? International exhibition of contemporary drawing Curators: Tomas Vu, Brian Novatny, Stipan Tadić and Marija Stipišić Vuković The exhibition DRAW – What Is Contemporary Drawing and What Can It All Be? presents a selection of seventy American and Croatian contemporary artists who are rethinking the medium of drawing in various ways. It is a project that was initiated by Tomas Vu, visual artist, professor and artistic director at the LeRoy Neiman Center for Print Studies at Columbia University in New York, and conceived as a curatorial platform focused on affirming drawing as an independent art discipline, and to encourage creativity in this medium of artistic expression.
The DRAW exhibition provides an insight into the latest developments on the contemporary art scene, those artists who recognise the quality and possibilities of creation in the drawing medium, whose work surprises with its inventiveness and creativity, whether in pure drawing or in combination with other art techniques.
Bringing together, in an exhibition format, internationally recognised artists and local artists the project carries particular importance for the cultural rapprochement between different cultures, primarily because of the need to consider local art production in the broad international context and evaluate its artistic achievements on the global stage.
