27. Is Drawing Important With Brian Kielt




Jo's Art History Podcast show

Summary: <p>⭐ WELCOME BACK TO THE JO’S ART HISTORY PODCAST ⭐</p> <p>It is good to be back with a fresh new episode after a week off!</p> <p>It’s Episode 27 and today, I sat down with artist, Brian Kielt, to discuss how different artists tackle the practise and concept of drawing. When Brian suggested talking about this, I had never really given much thought to the history and importance of drawing within art; but as you will see from our chat, where we take a deep dive into the works of FIVE artists, no two of approach drawing in the same way nor hold it in the same importance within their practise.</p> <p>From the sketchbooks of Leonardo  Di Vinci and the loose markings of Maggi Hambling, to the final work of Francis Bacon and erased masterpieces, Brian and I ask the questions:</p> <p>Is drawing important?</p> <p>When did collecting drawings become the norm in the art world?</p> <p>And…</p> <p>If an artist draws on a napkin - is it a work of art because it’s by the hand of an artist - or is it just a doodle?</p> <p>This was an excellent chat which really got me thinking about just how varied EVERYONE'S approach to drawing is. And that really - there is no right and wrong way of drawing - it's something that comes down to personal taste and practise.</p> <p>I’d love to know your thoughts so please do get in touch!
