The Royal Drawing School’s Online Drawing Development Year 2023 presents:
Drawing Beyond, a special exhibition showcasing works on paper by 28 students who have graduated from the course in 2023.

The exhibition which takes place from 6th - 10th of March 2024 showcases work created during the academic year and beyond.

The 28 exhibiting artists, who after forming a close creative affinity over the year have gone on to form the artist collective Drawing Studio 23, hail from across the UK, Ireland, Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands, Czech Republic and United States, bridging different generations and backgrounds.

Arriving to the course with a melting pot of different influences, ideas and styles the artists were united over the course of the year through the prism of drawing.

After 12 months of intensive observation, rummaging through memory and imagination, disrupting and reevaluating the meaning and power of line, mark making and form the artists have created a vast body of work.

Through reappraising their own process of looking, each artist has developed individual works that have been curated for the end of year exhibition by their Royal Drawing School tutors and fellow alumni.

The Online Drawing Development Year programme is in its third year, having welcomed students for the first time in 2021 and allows for a diverse array of artists to learn and collaborate with each other from all four corners of the globe.

The Royal Drawing School was founded in 2000 by HM King Charles III and artist Catherine Goodman, and is located in Shoreditch, London
