An exhibition showcasing the best of contemporary drawing, including works in a variety of style and media (not just pencil on paper). The Society of Graphic Fine Art was launched in 1919 to promote the primacy of drawing to all art forms. Feeling that the practice was being overlooked by more glamorous forms of art - such as painting - the founder members aimed to "reinstate in the estimation of the public...the importance of pure draughtsmanship, an essential - if not the essential - factor in all true art". Now with over 130 elected members as far afield as Australia and Russia, the Society continues to promote and exhibit original works of high quality, with the emphasis on excellence in drawing.
