In an age of mass media, where the rapid proliferation of images leaves many on the verge of digital exhaustion, <em>A Slice through the World<\/em> explores the power of traditional drawing to make us slow down and reconsider how we look at the world.<\/p>\n<p>By looking at this ancient&nbsp;communication&nbsp;technology as it meets the newest forms of digitised image culture,<em>&nbsp;<\/em>this exhibition<em>&nbsp;<\/em>will&nbsp;signal the resilience of drawing as a means of responding to contemporary questions of dialogue and representation, reinforcing its status as an inherently interdisciplinary medium that remains central to artistic practices across the world.<\/p>\n<p><em>A Slice through the World<\/em>&nbsp;is a collaboration with&nbsp;Drawing Room, London.&nbsp;The featured artists across the two-venue group exhibition are ruby onyinyechi amanze, Nidhal Chamekh, Milano Chow, Kate Davis, Karl Haendel, David Haines, Ian Kiaer, Ciprian Muresan, David Musgrave, Wura-Natasha Ogunji, Kathy Prendergast, Massinissa Selmani, Lucy Skaer and Barbara Walker.<\/p>\n<p><a
