#DrawingPapers 52 features an untitled ink on paper drawing created by
#NasreenMohamedi in 1982.
The 2005 exhibition, “Narseen Mohamedi: Lines among Lines”, presented the contemplative abstract drawings and photographs of Indian artist Nasreen Mohamedi (1937-1990). Mohamedi’s spare drawings were informed by ideas of modernity and by the geometry of Islamic architecture. The artist attempted to render, in her black-and-white photographs and fine line drawings, detailed observations on an ever changing landscape - spanning from the serene shifting sands of Kihim, India to the modernized congestion of Bombay and Delhi.
The Drawing Papers are a series of publications documenting The Drawing Center’s exhibitions and public programs and providing a forum for the study of drawing. -Kate Robinson, Bookstore Manager
