Where is the Line?

'Where is the line?’ brings together works from Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art (mima) which holds one of the most important collections of drawings in the North-East.

The exhibition focuses on artists who use drawing and mark making as a tool to document and interpret their immediate environment – both urban and rural, real, imaginary or somewhere in-between and includes works by Norman Cornish, William Tillyer, George Shaw, L.S Lowry and David Hepher amongst
others.

Additionally the exhibition includes a drawing commission from Northumberland based artist Jenny Purrett and Middlesbrough based artist Annie O’Donnell, who have collaborated to create new work inspired by the
exhibition.
