Friday, April 10th from 2 – 4pm Bakehouse Art Complex presents a webinar, Drawing Us In: A Conversation about Contemporary Drawing. For two weeks in March 2020, a group of fourteen artists from around the globe were to participate in L’AIR‘s drawing research residency in Paris. Days before the scheduled start date of the program, the COVID-19 pandemic grew in its severity across Europe and then the world, ultimately postponing the program and leading to shelter at home orders for many of the countries in which these artists live.
Undeterred, this group of artists used social media to interact and develop relationships with each other. This conversation, led by Bakehouse artist Jennifer Printz, will bring a subset of these artists together to discuss what drawing means, how they personally use the medium for their own artistic goals, and how they have continued creating in this unprecedented situation.
To join the conversation, please access the following link.
