The 22nd Drawing Show Residue
October 14 - November 27, 2011 Steve Holmes, Guest Curator Curator's Statement "Drawing is about residue. A drawing is the trace left behind. Leaving behind traces, drawing is life, drawing is residue. Graphite on paper, pigment on stone. Hatred, love, compassion, anger, grace - these also leave tracks behind. Residue examines the tracks left behind."
Since 1979 the Drawing Show has been a widely anticipated hallmark of the BCA's programming. This juried exhibition has allowed the BCA to work with more than 500 artists and over 20 guest curators from across the country. Proposals are welcome from all artists and designers who explore drawing as a medium in their work.
Steve Holmes is the Adjunct Curator of Contemporary Art at the Bass Museum of Art in Miami and the Head Curator of the Cartin Collection. Holmes was the originator of the recent multi-city reenactment of Fairytale - 1001 Chairs for Ai Weiwei, in support of the artis with actions in Hong Kong, Bern, Berlin, Brussels, Frankfurt, Munich, Stockholm, London, Dublin, Lisbon, Madrid, Sao Paolo, Rio, New York, Boston, Toronto, Chicago, San Francisco, Vancouver and Los Angeles.
