Experimental Drawing Workshop

Programme manager Ian Andrews delivered the regular experimental drawing workshop "Project in a night." This year it attracted a record number of participants with over 30 students volunteering for a two-hour evening session. As in previous workshops the emphasis was on the development of ideas under extreme time pressure.

OUTLINE encourages all students to participate and a wide range of different levels attended from first year subsidiary diploma, AS/A2 art to HND Fine art. These workshops create a space/arena in which students can operate outside the criteria of normal projects, where anything can happen and  experimental discoveries can be made.

OUTLINE presentation at the V&A in London.

In November OUTLINE took part in a series of presentations at the Victoria and Albert Museum as part of the launch of a publication called "15 methods 20 questions." The book was a series of interviews with people who are developing  innovative curriculum delivery models and Outline were invited to participate because of our  Experimental Drawing workshops and Community Drawing projects. 

Programme manager Ian Andrews gave a  presentation on the development of the experimental drawing workshops, their rationale and delivery methods and the City of 1000 Stories initiative run by the Department to engage community groups in the visual arts.

The presentation was an abridged version of the interview conducted with the Q-Art research team which forms part of the publication.
