Ron Shuebrook's career spans almost half a century. As a painter, educator and advocate, he has influenced two generations of artists, while remaining committed to a deeply held set of Modernist and humanistic values. Past critical discussions of the artist's work have concentrated on his paintings, often overlooking a rigourous drawing practice characterized by geometrically intricate, monochromatic drawings in charcoal on rag paper. Published to accompany a multi-venue exhibition and coinciding with the artist's seventieth birthday, this publication seeks to enrich this traditional reading of Shuebrook's practice by asserting the centrality and ongoing influence of his drawing to contemporary artists today.
