Between The Lines Exhibition

Between The Lines

Opening Night Friday April 10th.

6pm to 8pm

Ranelagh Arts Dublin 

Ranelagh Arts is happy to announce “Between The Lines” - A show celebrating the recommencement of our in-house life drawing classes, with collaboration from other sketching groups based in Dublin. 

The exhibition honours life drawing as a foundational artistic practice - creating a space where observation slows down and attention is given to weight, gesture, proportion and presence. 

Quick sketches, practice pieces and off-hand drawings which would otherwise be discarded find new appreciation in demonstrating the ongoing relevance of observation in an artist’s work. Hung together in volume, this body simulates the feeling of fluidity associated with a work in progress and the movement of the figure from pose to pose. 

To accompany this message, Ranelagh Arts will also display established works by artists including David Hedderman, which demonstrate how life drawing can act as the underpinning of a wider artistic practice - celebrating the figure not as a fixed ideal, but as something lived, observed and continually reinterpreted.

We look forward to seeing you at the opening night Friday April 10th from 6-8pm.

Many Thanks,

The Ranelagh Arts Team.
