About the Exhibition
The Goldmark Gallery Committee is pleased to present The Fourth Annual Drawing Invitational. This year we invited three amazing artists whose styles of drawing and material choices are widely varied. At the same time the viewer will discover a unity of commitment to this most basic and uniquely human form of expression running through the exhibition. In 2021, the Gallery Committee created the Drawing Invitational to fill a void in our exhibitions to highlight the most fundamental of all visual arts —drawing.
The importance of drawing in an artist’s life is hard to overstate. For most of us, artists as well as non-artists, drawing was the first form of expression we used to communicate— often before we mastered language. Additionally, drawing is the basic building block for many forms of visual art, a foundational skill we build on in our artistic journeys, whether we specialize in painting, sculpture, printmaking, ceramics, or other art forms.
The Gallery Committee wishes to thank the Goldmark Cultural Center for their commitment to this exhibition as well as our three talented exhibiting artists: Louise Murdock, Kyle Wood, and Gordon Young.
We also want to thank you, the viewer, for your participation without which our efforts would be meaningless. We hope you will enjoy this exhibition as much as we have enjoyed bringing it to you.
