摘要:
Drawing has always been a fundamental skill and good drawing skills allowed artists to grasp the reality around them. At the turn of the millennium, however, the general impression was that with the wide availability of computers, scanners, digital cameras and image software, drawing would dwindle into a marginal activity. In fact, the opposite happened: the enthusiasm for digital imagery died down and the ability to draw has become a treasured skill. In the art world, attitudes to drawing have also changed. Drawing became a way of making a statement as an artist, of showing masterly skill something that up to then had been most commonly associated with painting. After centuries in the shadow of its more illustrious fine art relatives, drawing started to be appreciated for its own sake, as an art discipline, an end in itself, an art form."In the past decade, the widespread usage of computers, scanners, digital cameras and image software has liberated drawing from its utilitarian past: from vast graphite twilights and ambitious narrative compositions, to intricately rendered hair and pelt and even abstract structures and virtual worlds. Walk the Line celebrates this new period in the art of drawing, as a new generation of practitioners transform it into a fully developed and complex art form."--Cover p. [4].
