Recenzje

'It is when artists think aloud with line - when they draw, in other words - that their imaginations seem most nearly stripped naked. Here is a mass skinny dip of powerful minds from across the globe. Malbert and Gilman's urgent selection demonstrates why in the 2020s the bare mark is becoming a crunch point for the whole visual art field' - Julian Bell
