At first sight Helder’s present show may look unassuming, but to an extent it is a kind of statement about the diversity and combination of drawings it wants to present.
They range from the works purely drawn from the use of basic graphic techniques, to lyrical or socio-politically motivated drawings.
Helder has a special interest in artists who combine thinking and making, technique and lyricism and not in the kind of expressionism that seems to come right from the gut.
As such Spring of Drawing shows a great diversity of drawings that combine very well.
Go and take a look if you don’t believe it (and if you do…).
