in: , A theory of narrative drawing, Berlin, Springer, 2017Abstract
Grennan presents the second of two practical visual demonstrations of his theory of narrative drawing. These are highly original, due to the well-crafted methodological and theoretical framing of both the analysis and the personal application of the exercise by the author. Grennan frames this second demonstration with a detailed discussion of the practices of appropriation and détournement. He discusses these relative to contemporary examples. In this second demonstration, Grennan aims to make a series of new narrative drawings under the constraints of a recognised horizon of expectation. This second visual demonstration produces and then analyses a set of new narrative drawings, made by the author, which appear to be typical of narrative drawing genres of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s.
