This is the first publication focusing on the drawings of British artist Glenn Brown (born 1966). Far from mere studies or sketches, Brown's drawings are artworks in their own right. The artist quotes and then disassembles drawings of the Old Masters, picking up the pieces and transmuting them.
This publication offers the first comprehensive look at the drawings of contemporary British artist Glenn Brown. The book explores Brown's unique approach to drawing, which elevates these works beyond preparatory studies to stand as independent artworks. Brown engages with the legacy of Old Masters by quoting and deconstructing their drawings, reassembling elements to create new compositions.
This catalogue serves as the inaugural publication dedicated to Glenn Brown's drawings, establishing their significance as independent works. The artist's technique of reinterpreting and deconstructing Old Master drawings is central to the book's exploration. The exhibition context at Galerie Max Hetzler provides a specific timeframe for this artistic presentation. The material suggests a focused study on Brown's drawing practice and its relationship to art history.
