Global Drawing Exhibition: artworks from Instituto de Artes, Universidade de Campinas - UNICAMP, Brazil






ITINERARIES
.
"The drawings here presented are from graduate students of the Visual Arts Department of the Instituto de Artes (Art Institute) of the Universidade de Campinas - UNICAMP (Brazil).  Besides pursuing their doctoral degrees in Studio Art, many of these young artists, coming from different regions of the country, have already started their professional careers with solo shows, gallery representation and also as university teachers in different art departments.  For each of these artists, the practice of drawing is in significant aspects an exploration of the relationships between drawing as process and product and different media such as: installation, sculpture, photography, book art, printmaking, digital art, etc. Drawing as an art form becomes a kind of mediating center, a type of lingua franca, a “general language” translating and being translated within the larger universe of artistic forms."
