#ARCdrawing

In order to generate some new work from our book, Performance Drawing: New Practices Since 1945, we warmly invite you to take part in #ARCdrawing, a participatory exhibition on Instagram.

We will be printing out each work and exhibiting them in our next show.

If you check out our Instagram profile on @performancedrawing, we have posted a series of ARC directives from our archive, like the one below. These were used in our performance ARC:I Draw for You at Wimbledon Centre for Drawing in 2010.

All you need to do is to respond to one of these instructions in your own way and in any medium you choose. Then tag us @performancedrawing and include the hashtag of the ARC you are responding to. Here’s an example of one of the original ARC directives by Carali McCall.
