Drawing Matter News and Events

Drawing Matter editors Rosie Ellison-Balaam and Maria Mitsoula feature in the latest issue of Stoà. Their text Working (with) Drawings from the Drawing Matter Collection discusses the formation of the collection alongside a description of a workshop run with the University of Edinburgh. It explores how our drawings can become a brief in themselves.
Three drawings from the Drawing Matter Collection have been reproduced for Rome in the World at Fondazione MAXXI in Rome, curated by Ricky Burdett.
