Open Sessions 2016–2017 has officially started.  We welcomed 36 artists, including two collaborative groups, to join us for two years.  For most of the artists, our February 2016 orientation was the first time meeting The Drawing Center curatorial team and each other. Coming from a diverse background, this new group of artists work in media ranging from drawing to music, performance, photography, calligraphy, video, sculpture, architecture, and poetry, each bringing their own voice to this growing Drawing Center initiative. Open Sessions exemplifies the mission of The Drawing Center in that it provides a space for artists to collaborate and experiment, exploring the drawing process on equal terms with its final result. – go to drawingcenter.org and click on the lower left circle for a full blog post. 
The first exhibition of this round, #OpenSessions7, opens July 15.
