SECCA proudly presents DRAWN: Concept & Craft, an expansive exhibition featuring more than 200 works by a wide array of artists including LeRoy Neiman, Kara Walker, Fab 5 Freddy, Kiki Smith, Sarah Sze and Buckminster Fuller. DRAWN brings together the diverse works of over 60 artists from around the world in an exhibition that provides a rare, revealing look into the creative process and artists' unique relationship with the art of drawing.
DRAWN is curated by project founder Tomas Vu and SECCA Curator Wendy Earle with the assistance of Brian Novatny. DRAWN is made possible in part by the generous support of The LeRoy Neiman and Janet Byrne Neiman Foundation.
DRAWN expands the very idea of drawing. What began with the beautiful simplicity of two-dimensional works has now evolved to include animation, video projection, sculpture, collage, and cut-paper. "Every work of art in this exhibition is the artist's direct or indirect answer to the question of 'What does drawing mean to you?'" says SECCA Curator Wendy Earle. "For some it's about process, for others it's about form. Some artists are additive, and some are subtractive."
