Press Release

In contemporary art, drawing is a territory that allows for an infinity of forms. It is also an extremely

diverse creative universe. It is on this playground that Danysz gallery invites once again its visitors to

discover artworks from a rich selection of artists, on the occasion of the 6th edition of the exhibition

“The Drawing Hand”, dedicated to drawing in all its different forms.

The sixth edition of “The Drawing Hand” exhibition, now a signature one at the gallery, retains the

fundamentals that made the success of the previous editions. It involves artists coming from various

geographical horizons - from French Ludo to Chinese Maleonn. No matter their usual practice this time

around they are invited to recflect about the act of drawing. Additionally, to add more fun to the game, each of

them invite another artist. This huge reunion of artists ends up at offering a pictorial language as varied as the

myriad of interpretations suggested by the term “drawing”, including artworks made of strings, ink, paper

cutting, paper folding, writing, or digital drawing. Giving total freedom of interpretation to the artists, “The

Drawing Hand” offers a portrait of this rich and fertile ground.

On the white walls of the gallery, the artworks proliferate and spread all over in a dynamic and overwhelming

exhibition layout. One imagines the connections between the works. One tries to guess who invited whom…

The viewer is continuously surprised by an unexpected medium or seduced by the exquisiteness of a pencil

stroke. Drawing unites all these different forms of expression, and the works echo each other.

Bringing together Huang Xiaoliang, Georges Rousse, Abdul Rahman Katanani, Song Xi, and many others,

this exhibition invites us into the intimacy of the artistic gesture. It gives us to experience what Picasso used

to say: “Evidently one never knows what one is going to draw… but when one starts doing it, then a story is

born, an idea… and there you go”.
