Dobell Drawing Prize 2023 SMH Review

Dobell Drawing Prize 2023 SMH Review

“God’s not telling, but one thing is certain: it all begins with that first mark that delimits infinite space. It’s the same process repeated by every artist who takes a pencil, a pen, a brush or a piece of charcoal, and draws a line on a virgin sheet of paper. From that primal mark, the most minimal or elaborate drawing may grow.”

John McDonald, Art Critic, writes for the Sydney Morning Herald reviewing the 23rd Dobell Drawing Prize, showing at the NAS Galleries till 10 June.
