Edward LaningEdward Laning, (Male Figures)1972
1972
About the Item
This pencil drawing by master draughtsman Edward Laning has religious over tones. Perhaps it's a study for a deposition. There are male figures, both nude and clothed, one on a ladder, and at the lower left a figure seems to be carrying something that could be a body. It's that man who is drawn again, much larger, at the center of the sheet.
Signed and dated in pencil. Dimensions are for the sheet.

Reader, oversize drawing of young woman reading, minimal color
By Audrey Anastasi
Located in Brooklyn, NY
This work was intentionally torn and mended. It predates the artist's full immersion, years later into torn and re-pasted collages, using ripped previous drawings and paper-based materials from media. These recently discovered 1984 oversize drawings on archival papers were created working quickly, from a live model. The series shows the last existing observational drawings prior to the artist's switch to working with her non- dominant left hand.
As a feminist, Anastasi's main focus is presenting other women. Unlike the often objectified male gaze...
