Description
By Hand showcases a diverse group of drawings by 26 artists, ranging in the stages of their careers from emerging to established, who hail from cities around the world, including Los Angeles, New York, Paris, Tokyo, Dublin, and London. In contrast to a recent surge of art made with the aid of technology, the drawings included in By Hand were all created with simple, hand-held tools. This exhibition brings together work that resists the ever-present temptation to generate images with a computer, even when the artist must laboriously render such minutiae as the pattern of fabric, type-written passages, or pin-straight, parallel lines. Visually prominent in many of the works are the obsessive attention to detail and the painstaking processes required in their making, while other works are handmade attempts to recreate an image or a pattern that was originally machinemade, thus revealing or concealing the differences between the two.
