Reviews
'Drawing in the Twenty-First Century provides a thought-provoking collection of essays that demonstrates unique ways that artists exploit drawing's associations with line, immediacy, modesty of means, and didactics to address contemporary concerns from the political to the poetic. Furthermore, the essays examine drawing's definition over time, and the recent history of drawing exhibitions and publications that have signaled the medium's increasing relevance in art of the twenty-first century. Pergam's compendium is an excellent contribution to the contemporary discourse on drawing.' Leslie Jones, Curator of Prints and Drawings, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, USA
'A necessary and provocative conversation on post-modernist drawings, and the many contemporary artists who re-define its practice. Drawing now crosses a broad spectrum of aesthetic expressions, leaving its mark well beyond paper and pencil.' Dita Amory, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA
