Description
Summary:Originally written for an exhibition the author curated at the Museum of Fine Arts in Lyon in 2007, this book addresses the medium of drawing in light of the question of form - of form in its formation, as a formative force, as a birth to form. In this sense, drawing opens less toward its achievement, intention, and accomplishment than toward a finality without end and the infinite renewal of ends, toward lines of sense marked by tracings, suspensions, and permanent interruptions.--description provided by publisher.
