520|  |▼aHow does drawing shape the t-
   |  |ruth and our understanding of -
   |  |the visual world? Why has the -
   |  |act of reportage drawing persi-
   |  |sted and thrived in our ever-c-
   |  |hanging media landscape? This -
   |  |book offers a deep dive into t-
   |  |he world of reportage drawing,-
   |  | a world which is provocative,-
   |  | mixed media, transdisciplinar-
   |  |y and immersed in the idiosync-
   |  |ratic vision of the artist. Wh-
   |  |ere the traditional orientatio-
   |  |n of reportage was on the comm-
   |  |unicative function of the imag-
   |  |e as a record of an event, con-
   |  |temporary practitioners, large-
   |  |ly detached from commissioning-
   |  | structures of the 19th and 20-
   |  |th centuries, now seek to capt-
   |  |ure more experiential qualitie-
   |  |s of place and choose location-
   |  |s which have highly personal a-
   |  |nd political significance. Lib-
   |  |erated from old conceptions of-
   |  | reportage drawing as objectiv-
   |  |e and true, artists today embr-
   |  |ace subjectivity and are seeki-
   |  |ng a rich dialogue with their -
   |  |subjects, using drawing to tel-
   |  |l important stories about prot-
   |  |est, human migration, war, cor-
   |  |porate capitalism and homeless-
   |  |ness. Louis Netter distinguish-
   |  |es contemporary reportage draw-
   |  |ing from its historical functi-
   |  |on through a critical explorat-
   |  |ion of the aesthetic of the sk-
   |  |etch, the role of caricature a-
   |  |nd the nature of experience. F-
   |  |eaturing several prominent art-
   |  |ists such as Jill Gibbon, who -
   |  |secretly draws in arms fairs a-
   |  |cross Europe, Mario Minichiell-
   |  |o, a highly influential report-
   |  |age illustrator who has worked-
   |  | for the BBC鈥檚 Newsnight and T-
   |  |he Guardian newspaper among ot-
   |  |hers, renowned reportage illus-
   |  |trator Gary Embury and French -
   |  |reportage artist Loup Blaster,-
   |  | in addition to an exploration-
   |  | of the author鈥檚 own work, thi-
   |  |s book shows how the act of dr-
   |  |awing can foster new insights -
   |  |about people, places and polit-
   |  |ical realities in often subtle-
   |  | and challenging ways. Part of-
   |  | the Drawing In series, this b-
   |  |ook opens up reportage drawing-
   |  | practice as a way of understa-
   |  |nding our world in a deeper an-
   |  |d more personal way.
