Drawing Symposium — Constructions of the visible Prince's Drawing School

11 Dec 2006 - one week symposium (very much a taught week)
As I did the drawing symposium in 2004 I feel I can comment a bit on this. Though I really enjoy and continue to develop or explore working from observation; drawing is much more than this. Glen Sujo role as a teacher and leader of this course is a refreshing approach to life drawing. I found his use of moving (talented) dancers extremely inspiring. But, to call this week a symposium is inappropriate.
The week includes contributions from Deanna Petherbridge, Barry Phipps, Dilip Sur, Bill Woodrow and Ansel Krut. Many big names, but don't feel that this week will be at the fore front of drawing research... bit I could be wrong
