Drawing All Over
vera • May 30th, 2008
This Sunday, we will perform our piece patashnik a/b at the opening of the exhibition
Drawing All Over – The Power of Line in the Untergröningen castle, between Stuttgart and Nuremberg.
The show comprises works by an international selection of artists, a.o. William Kentridge, William Forsythe, Ulrich Möckel, Robert Longo.
“The 2008 summer exhibition of international contemporary artists has drawing at the centre of its artistic performance and visual perception. Drawing – often preceded by a rough sketch- is, like writing, closely related to the inspiration of thinking, and thus belongs to the most direct and spontaneous forms of artistic expression. “What cannot be said, must be drawn” is our paraphrase of Ludwig Wittgenstein’s famous philosophical maxim. Influenced by new media and expanding concepts of art, drawing is opening new horizons. But the latter are still bound together by the power of the drawn line.”
