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."

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.
