In 2022, Drawing Room celebrates its 20th birthday. To mark the anniversary we are looking back at momentous exhibitions from our recent and more distant past and talking to the artists and contributors who made them happen, examining the centrality of drawing to creative practice from the perspective of artists. In the fourth of this yearlong series we look back to the exhibition A Slice through the World: Contemporary Artists’ Drawings (2018), a group exhibition celebrating the sustained power of drawing in the digital age.
This online event features participating artists ruby onyinyechi amanze & Kathy Prendergast who will be in conversation with A Slice through the World Co-Curator Stephanie Straine.
