About

What do you think about when you hear the phrase draw lines? A line can separate but also connect; it can create divisions and boundaries but also generate space. For artists, the line has been a critical apparatus for exploration. Through weaving, painting, sketching, cutting, collaging, or layering—whether their lines stretch in two dimensions or extend into our space—the artists in Drawing Lines activate the line as a generative form with expansive potential.

This exhibition is organized by the Hood Museum of Art, Dartmouth College, and was generously supported by the Philip Fowler 1927 Memorial Fund.
