With a rigorous approach and self-imposed limitations to both scale and composition, Tomma Abts (b. 1967) has reinvigorated painterly abstraction and its relevance within contemporary art. Using a fixed canvas size and a vertical format, Abts deploys basic formal elements such as arcs, circles, planes, and stripes to create powerful works that are at once subtle and eccentric. This extraordinary book, designed in collaboration with the artist herself, is a substantial and deeply insightful treatment of her career to date and features sixty works made over the past decade. Essays not only contextualize Abts's work within an art-historical framework of methods, process, and style, but also examine her paintings' philosophical and psychological dimensions and their embodiment of a creative process that transcends the specifics of any particular work. The beautifully designed and illustrated exhibition catalogue examines both the art-historical framework of Tomma Abts's painting as well as its deep philosophical and psychological dimensions.

‘Drawing. The Bottom Line’ presents drawing related work of 54 international artists. Drawing has always been there, will ever be there, and becomes particular present in times of crisis. Once described as the mother of all arts drawing lies at the bottom of all artistic activities. The freedom of art lives in drawing.

‘Drawing. The Bottom Line’ embraces the singular practices of all participating artists, whose approach derives out a drawing, or where the history and conventions of the medium find a particular reflection. The presented work hovers between quick sketch and complex construction, between explosive expression and controlled stasis, and, essentially between fast and slow, since drawing is the medium of absorbed time. As most elegant parasite amongst the media drawing stays immune towards many Zeitgeist-attacks, from material patina to the hunger of the curator. A drawing trace can lead you far out to another century in the same way as it can sketch the beginning of something new. Drawing jumps from diary to film, from thought to narration, from material to idea, and from study to mastery, such as the artists wants. They can let it dig deep into their minds as they can make it touch the ground. Because every picture starts with a separation, which is a line.

Drawing. The Bottom Line includes contributions by John Berger, Martin Germann, Philippe Van Cauteren, and short-text introductions by approximately 40 international experts in the field of drawing, mainly selected by the invited artists.
