ON LINE: Drawing our reality


 We have traded visceral mark making with a digital technology that blurs the line between authorship and originality. Digital mediation tools like tablets, projectors, Artificial Intelligence, and other software technologies distract us, while providing sophisticated imaging tools to enrich our experiences. We are represented by our online behaviors, enriched data sets and millions of meta-data points that become marks that lead us back to a different type of self-awareness. On Line harkens to artists who find folly and refuge as did the  Artist Paul Klee who said,  “A drawing is simply a line going for a walk”. 

 

On Line: drawing our reality is a show of strong observational and experimental  drawing that surveys regional artists that have taken the role of witness, offering a myriad of perspectives, showing us landscapes and skin patterning, and Tromp l‘oeil realism, hybrid fantasies, and abandoned supermarkets. The artists featured use drawing as the headliner for that walk through a turbulent time in our most recent collective history. 

 

The artists featured are Davon Brantley, Leigh Brooklyn, Dominick Cafarella, Charisse Harris, David M. Hicks, Tony Ingrisano, Charles Kanwischer. George Kozmon, Alyssa Lizzini, George Mauersberger, Eric Macalla, Joanna Mitchell, Michelle Muldrow, Michael Whitehead, and Kristina Walter
