| A group of distinguished panelists will explore the origins, study, pedagogy and creative practice of drawing today. As the rise of new media intersects with the revival of traditional skills, new challenges and opportunities are revealed. Artistic genres diversify. Employing analog or digital tools on physical and electronic surfaces, drawing today functions in two, three and four dimensions. Speakers will present differing views on how the reinvigoration of drawing promotes visual literacy, builds community, envisions better use of public space, empowers artistic expression and enriches society as a whole. |
