Drawing: Automatic Engine Exhibit at Clemson University's Lee Gallery

October 20–30, M-TH
DRAWING: AUTOMATIC ENGINE EXHIBIT
9 a.m. –4:30 p.m.
Lee Gallery, 1-101 Lee Hall

Intense, absorbing, and demanding are the mental and physical precursors to understanding the context of how works in this exhibition were created. Automatic Engine is the outcome of an intensive drawing workshop for students enrolled in the Clemson University Department of Art and Architecture programs under the direction of guest artist, Clive King.

Through the workshop experience students learned that drawing isn’t an end in itself but is a process in which to open up and allows students to consider options, directions, and media connections that might not have been apparent before. The drawing experience became an engine that drove students to create works moving between drawings, paintings, collages, and even 3-d constructions.

The exhibition is organized in conjunction with the Department of Art Visiting Artist Lecture Series “Bodies in Process.”
