The Power of Drawing (1)

Last night was an event to celebrate the twenty fifth anniversary of the Royal Drawing School.  25 artists had been asked to contribute work, including the King and Rufus Wainwright who performed Hallelujah on the piano.  It was hard to get a chance to see the work, but it will be shown at the Royal Drawing School in Charlotte Road from next Tuesday and is commemorated in a beautifully produced large book, designed by Pentagram.  It shows the work, together with quotations about the importance of drawing.

I particularly like the comment by Tim Burton:-

Drawings are like an abstract diary for me…a time, a place, a feeling.  Nothing literal, but a memory.
