Vitamin D2: New Perspectives In Drawing

    The second installment in the Vitamin D series (and there is also a Vitamin P for Painting), this is an excellent selection of contemporary drawing.  The layout and images of the work are clear, and there are short essays accompanying each artist's work that is featured.  When I was in graduate school, the first volume was invaluable to my research and studio practice, and this second volume should be no different for anyone interested in looking at a serious monograph that presents a wide array of what people are drawing now, and how they are drawing.
   Drawing as a medium is a serious endeavor these days, and this book gives the reader an idea of just how versatile drawing can be. Vitamin D2 is a book for anyone interested in contemporary drawing, at any level.  There are some really lovely images and exciting ways that artists are approaching the medium.
