A richly illustrated, up-to-the-minute overview of new approaches in drawing, set in the context of recent developments of other forms of contemporary art. This book explores the variety of ways in which contemporary artists from around the world have come to approach drawing as the primary, sometimes the sole, element of their practice, and one which is autonomous: an end in itself rather than a means to an end in another, more substantial medium. In an era of advanced technologies where image production has accelerated �_" potentially beyond the capacity of human attention �_" what values can be attributed to the slow, deliberate process of drawing by hand? The artworks featured in this volume are not confined to traditional tools �_" one can also draw on a computer, tablet or smartphone, and examples of digital drawing are incorporated into the narrative not as a separate category but as one medium among many. Grouped thematically by specific approaches, including abstraction and figuration, nature and artifice, social observation and critique, with essays and feature spreads for each section, this selection of international artists of diverse backgrounds and experience includes not only recognizable names such as Michael Armitage, Camille Henrot, Robert Longo, Amy Sillman and Kara Walker, but also a host of emerging talents. Beautifully presented in a visually appealing and tactile format with the feel of an artist�_Ts portfolio, this is an inspiring overview of the best drawing practice today.

Great Bag!
I used this bag all over Europe this summer! It was so easy and convenient to have access to my wallet, sunscreen, sunglasses in one spot over my best. The bag was super cute and held a lot of items. The thick strap was really good for support and even held up during the really hot days. There are a few different pockets which is helpful as well. I recommend this bag! :)

Nice pink, bigger than expected
Color: Rose Red
Bigger than expected, I bought four my niece, she likes it and I think once she gets some items in it and break it in. It’s a nice shade of pink and I really like the strap.

Great for the price
I'm really happy with this bag, especially for the price. The two pockets are nice and large enough to fit my kindle, so I was excited about that. The card holders built in to the bag make it easy to just take the few card you need without bringing a whole wallet.

Perfect Size
Colors are spot on. This is my second one to own, I love the size because it’s not too big, not too small. I can carry one of these bags everyday for about a year before any wear starts to show. The strap is beautiful and I have gotten compliments on it a lot.

Favorite Bag
I LOVE this bag. the bag is super cute. I have a toddler and the bag is constantly getting thrown around and so far it has held up well. The material is thick and the strap is great. The only thing that would make it better would be an interchangeable strap to accessorize.
