Jim Dine, Artist, The Glyptotek Drawings

Eraser crumbs fixed to the surface of a drawing.

"In all of the drawings, evidence remains of Dine's use of erasers to subtract layers of friable media, whether it is a subtle highlight or a large area of subtraction with remaining eraser crumbs visible. The crumbs that remain on the drawings are adhered into place by subsequent layers of fixative and are reproduced in printed form as an abstract tonal pattern. A tonal pattern was not Dine's intention when he left these crumbs on the drawings but instead, as Dine mused, "[I] just left my tracks."

Sandpaper used on the surface of a drawing. 

"Subtracting media is not unique to this series, but rather is a constant for Dine in the creation of drawings. In the past Dine has described a drawing as "something you . . . carve . . . out of the paper rather than laying it on top."v This working method typically prescribes the use of thick resilient supports."

Molly Hatch, Artist

"Drawing and ceramics artist Molly Hatch creates work that combines her interest in historic trends with a mix of contemporary styles, designs, a sense of humor, and a bit of pop culture. In these pieces that she calls plate paintings, historic source imagery from MFA Boston and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC are her inspiration. Each plate contains an intricate drawing that, only when combined with the full grid of ceramic plates, creates a stunning display.

Recently, Hatch’s work was featured in a group project called COVET at Sofa New York 2012 on behalf of Ferrin Gallery. The Ferrin Gallery director Leslie Ferrin says, “One of the strongest trends in contemporary art today is the reinterpretation of history as presented through modern ideas.” In full support of this statement, Hatch brings new meaning to classic art through this modern and unique ceramic-based presentation."
