Drawn Apart presents the work of eight artists who use drawing as an integral but not exclusive element of their practice. The exhibiting artists are predominantly known for their other works in sculpture, installation and performance but all consistently use drawing to examine, explore and interrogate new ideas.

Underpinning all of their practice is a fascination with the medium, in some cases as the sparking point of an idea, in others as an opportunity to further develop a relationship with a particular body of work. This exhibition will provide an opportunity to consider the varied approaches taken by contemporary artists to the medium of drawing.

Part II, later this year, will be hosted by Day & Faber, an old master drawings gallery based in New Bond Street, London’s West End. Part II will offer the opportunity to see a selected group of contemporary works alongside and sometimes responding to old masters drawings currently in the Day & Faber collection. A programme of talks will complement the project.
