An exhibition of NEW DRAWINGS selected by Samantha Friedman.
To celebrate its 35th anniversary, Kentler International Drawing Space invites artists from around the world to submit NEW DRAWINGS (no more than two years old) for its inaugural juried group exhibition. The juror is particularly interested in drawings that openly celebrate, question, or acknowledge their medium. Works might reflect on one or more of drawing’s defining elements (line, paper, immediacy), or push its boundaries to explore what makes the form essential. What has drawing been, what is it now, and what can it be?
