The present “The Drawing Show” is the second of the two-part exhibition organized by Gallery Sumukha. This segment features artworks of 21 contemporary artists who have carved a niche for themselves in the field of art on a National and International level. The exhibition intends to re-examine the already established meaning of drawing and explore various contexts, ideas, and visual interpretations. These drawings are not just a composition of lines, dots, and forms but are comprised of thoughts that have taken visual forms and represent a complex layering of idea, medium, and expression; and these drawings help interpret their interrelation. The works featured here demonstrate the contemporary approach to drawing and thereby helps us to evaluate and position drawing as still a powerful language in arts.
The artists, featured in this exhibition, have established themselves in the artistic field in mediums of painting, sculpture, printmaking, installations, and other contemporary hybrid mediums and it is these works with which most of these practitioners are identified with. Through this exhibition, we are featuring the drawing works of these artists which are lesser known and that makes this exhibition significant.
