Charlottetown – Drawing: it is one of the first things we learn to do, and whether it is doodling or creating works of art, drawing stays with us throughout our lives. The Confederation Centre Art Gallery examines drawing with a new exhibit this summer. Drawing up a Storm opens May 28 and is curated by Ihor Holubizky.
“What drawing does, what it says, and how the language of drawing continues to change and adapt to different ideas and expressions – that’s our focus,” Holubizky says. “The show features one cinematic-vision and monumental-scaled narrative drawing by three Canadians, Simon Hughes of Winnipeg, Alison Norlen from Regina, and Rick Pottruff from Brantford, juxtaposed with a visual map of more than 80 works from the Confederation Centre Art Gallery’s 20th century Canadian collection.”
Drawing up a Storm runs May 28 through September 14.
