The Opposite of Vertigo

In 2007 a drawing exhibition was put together at The Drawing Room, London, that I am really interested in reading more about. I will be researching the featured artist of this particular exhibition as the exhibition text reads like all the artists are concerned with the longevity in their drawing processes; it is never resolved, just an on going journey where one processes inspires and leads to the next.

For now,  here is the exhibition text from The Drawing Room website...

"A defining feature of the works included in The Opposite of Vertigo is that means and end are intractably intertwined; drawing is not simply a means to an end but a process that will lead to something else.  Much of the work possesses a tangible physicality, the labour intensive manipulation of materials colliding with complex thought processes.  The nine artists are from north east England and are coming to prominence nationally and internationally."



Featuring the work of: Darren Banks, Catherine Bertola, Cath Campbell, Alex Charrington, Layla Curtis, Graham Dolphin, Peter J. Evans, Richard Forster, Kevin Mason, Karl Nattress
