Drawing Biennial 2017: Capturing a world in flux

More than 200 unique works on paper by leading artists are on display at this thought-provoking exhibition, held at London's Drawing Room

Walk into any gallery today and you're just as likely to find artwork on the floor or hanging from the ceiling as on the walls. But even for those who specialise in installation, video or performance, there's a certain pleasure in the immediacy of pen and paper. The Drawing Biennial, held at Drawing Room in London, will present more than 200 new and recent works from leading international artists, showcasing how the medium can be elevated from mere preliminary sketches to a thought-provoking and forward-thinking art form.
