Reviews

Drawing is an activity of marking oneself in the world, placing the drawer in space and time. Through scholarly essays, artist examples and interviews with artists, this book presents a rich variety of different perspectives on the topic of drawing and placemaking, asking how can drawing examine relationships to inhabited environments and make visible imaginative realms of the mind * Sarah Casey, Professor in Fine Arts and its Histories, Lancaster University, UK *
