All About Drawing. 100 Dutch Artists

All About Drawing. 100 Dutch Artists provides insight into the development of drawing in the Netherlands from the 1960s up to the present day. Diana Wind, director of the Stedelijk Museum Schiedam and artist/curator Arno Kramer selected a hundred artists for whom drawing is the most important discipline in their oeuvre. The choice was also determined by the degree of originality and autonomous quality displayed, continuity in the oeuvre, the intensity of the work on paper, and diversity in the genres. Accordingly, a whole panorama of draughtsmen who realize work with an own signature can now be presented.

Artists have worked with many styles and genres in the period covered by All About Drawing. Draughtsmen such as Marijn Akkermans, Rik Smits and Jeroen Pomp, among others, have produced figurative drawings in which all forms of nature, humans, animals and architecture form the themes. The category of ‘abstraction, serial and fundamental’ contains the work of Jan Schoonhoven and Cor de Nobel, for example, while ‘text and form’ is represented by artists such as Marc Nagtzaam, Paul van der Eerden and Henri Jacobs. All forms of expression are represented in terms of style as well, ranging from the very disciplined abstract style of Gerda Teljeur and Arjan Janssen to the wilder drawings by David Bade and Charlotte Schleiffert. More sensitive and poetic drawings are also present in abundance; they have often been produced in large format, by artists such as Hanneke Francken, Elly Strik, Jacobien de Rooij, Hans de Wit, Erik Odijk and Renie Spoelstra. All About Drawing is an indispensable overview for everyone interested in post-war drawing.

Drawings Manifestation and Symposium Many galleries, museums and art institutions participate in a parallel activity called Tekeningen Manifestatie (Drawings Manifestation), which is an initiative of the Stedelijk Museum Schiedam and is intended to elicit attention for drawing at as many locations as possible during the exhibition period. The Stedelijk Museum Schiedam will organize a symposium with speakers from home and abroad during this period.

Book The book entitled All About Drawing. 100 Dutch Artists approaches drawing more broadly than the exhibition does. Pietje Tegenbosch and Hans den Hartog Jager sketch the international context and lead us along the boundaries of drawing. In her essay, Maria Barnas demonstrates how closely the signature – writing – lies to drawing. And Renée Steenbergen writes about the perception of drawing in both private ad museum collections. Brief texts on all the artists have been compiled by Yasmijn Jarram, Nicole Theeuwes, Wilma Sütö, Rutger Wolfson, Arno Kramer and Diana Wind.
