Painting@Drawing - the exhibition at Tonyraka Gallery in Ubud March 30 – April 14, 2012 presents a selection of drawing-based paintings as a way to see an “evolution of drawing” in contemporary art practice.
Drawing is seen as an element of painting, but not just one element among others. It is specifically highlighted as the superior element of painting, the main part which determines the character of the painterly subject, or the character of the painter, the expression of thoughts and feelings of the artist: Drawing as the important element which embodies the “style.”
The exhibition seeks to reveal insights about how the contemporary artists create new levels of complexity in the practice of drawing that expands and enriches the traditional drawing practice. It shows an increasing appreciation of drawing in contemporary art, as well as the ways in which drawing continues to evolve, constantly re-creating itself.
Painting@Drawing marks a changing attitude towards drawing in the realm of contemporary art.
