Sketch: GroupShow

The Figure Drawing Group at Brooklyn Artists Gym is pleased to invite you to the opening reception of our annual group show, Sketch. From 6 to 9 pm on Saturday, April 23, more than 80 drawings will be on view to the public; and artists will be present to answer questions and interact with visitors. Held yearly in April, the exhibition presents a rare chance to view works by these emerging and established artists. The group show will showcase a diverse array of original drawings and paintings produced by the studio's talented artists during our weekly drawing sessions.

Sketch is a group exhibition where the artist is asked to draw or crop a larger drawing into an 8-inch square to isolate and reveal details within the artwork. Subtleties are magnified. Viewers peer into the thought process that is sometimes second nature to the artist—the intuitive composition, color relationships, and purposeful lines on paper. Sketch explores the art of observing, thinking, and mark making on paper.
