Description: Drawing: The Invention of a Modern Medium
~Unlike music or film, drawing is not a time-based medium in any traditional sense. Drawings, however, hardly escape time. They take time to make and time to see, time to tell stories and time to age. Almost any medium is temporal by these standards, but what distinguishes drawing is the way that it cuts time into a series of discrete traces.
