Drawing , photography and time

Jesse Dayan, Before 1960, oil on canvas

Jesse Dayan gave a facinating talk last night about his most recent Brunswick show. He described this work as a form of research into the implications of the use of photographs within drawing and painting practice. Of particular interest to me was his description of how each medium relates to time and each other. I am hoping to put up a transcript of the talk soon.

This Tuesday November 20th, Jesse Dayan is coming to speak about his recent exhibition. In recent years Jesse has been steadily building an extensive knowledge and body of work which reflects some of the most pertinent aspects of past and contemporary painting and drawing practice. www.jessedayan.com
