Blind Monstrance Drawing No. 8, a drawing by Juliet Haysom (AA Academic Staff) will be part of the upcoming exhibition at the British Museum: Pushing paper: contemporary drawing from 1970 to now.

“Celebrating drawing in its own right, rather than its historic role as preparatory to painting, this display explores how contemporary artists as diverse as Tacita Dean, Richard Deacon, Imran Qureshi and Anish Kapoor have used drawing to examine themes including identity, place and memory.” – British Museum

The exhibition will be on display from 12 September 2019 – 12 January 2020 at the British Museum and will then travel to Durham, Swansea, Stromness and Barnsley. There will also be an accompanying book, published by Thames and Hudson.
