The Leslie/Lohman Gallery presents Drawn Together, a three-part exhibition of well over 500 works on paper. Curated by Rob Hugh Rosen, this show contains both drawings of men together and images of men created by men drawing together. '06GS alum Erich Erving has ten erotic etchings featured in the show.
Drawn Together runs from February 17 through April 3, 2010. There will be a public reception to mark the opening of the exhibition on Tuesday, February 16 from 6pm to 8pm.
In addition to the more than 150 framed pieces in Drawn Together, the exhibition also includes The Big Wall of Little Drawings, an entire wall of the gallery featuring hundreds of smaller, unframed works (5" x 6" to 8" x 10") affordably priced between $60 and $160. Moreover, gallery visitors can peruse portfolios containing well over 100 more unframed works on paper (8" x 10" and larger) starting at $120. Says curator, Rob Hugh Rosen, "The idea behind Drawn Together is two-fold: first is giving artists an opportunity to exhibit images that unequivocally and proudly express homosexual friendship, love and lust. Secondly, in a difficult financial period, this show provides a venue for artists to sell works and for collectors to purchase some great artwork at a variety of price-points.
