Dessiner met une ligne autour d'une idée Drawing is putting a line around an idea Henri Matisse
Drawing is used across a wide range of disciplines as a foundational way of learning, sharing and generating knowledge. Contemporary artists and architects have also employed drawing to explore, challenge and sometimes upend how these disciplinary systems engage with the world. The exhibition A Line Around an Idea considers how drawing can be a generative and disruptive force within scientific observation and design, as well as interrogating art histories and canonical textual narratives.
A Line Around An Idea is supported by The Arts Council Ireland, University College Cork and private philanthropy through Cork University Foundation.
