Selections Fall 2006: Common Destination

September 16 – October 29, 2006

The Drawing Center presented Selections Fall 2006: Common Destination, featuring twelve emerging artists selected from the Viewing Program. The artists in Common Destination explored the fictions, histories, and futures of geopolitics through an expansive approach to drawing. Working in New York, San Francisco, Europe, and Australia, they crafted fantastical terrains and architectures from line in space, on paper, and in geography and language. Amidst contemporary centripetal and centrifugal forces that drew and erased borders with ever increasing intensity, their transformations of place shared a revitalizing metaphysical and individual perspective.

Curated through The Drawing Center’s Viewing Program.
