Should the ability to draw be seen as a literacy? Is it sensible to characterize the act of drawing as the reduction of multi- dimensional events to readable two-dimensional imagery? Last Thursday I was lucky to attend a lecture and conversation by Professors Stephen Farthing and Simon Betts on "The Bigger Picture of Drawing: A New Curriculum …
