Works on Paper: Mapping Subjects & Methods
This exhibition provides insights into subjects and methods of works on paper by a select group of artists from The Guild's collection. 'Works on Paper' is a category that includes a variety of techniques and a wide range of mediums - all using paper as the ground. Paper has its historical context connected to the trade with Arabs. Each of the techniques presented in this exhibition also has a lineage: be it the watercolours that have been ancient methods of painting or the techniques introduced by the West for mass-production of popular prints. The manner in which these mediums and techniques involving paper entered into curriculums in art schools is another fascinating arena for exploring. WORKS ON PAPER - Mapping Subjects & Methods is a survey of these aspects with a focus on the technical facets that are often overlooked - while also probing into the subject and thematic.
