Some People,

are just so talented,

 and whilst you can appreciate their work at a exhibition or art sale, there is so much that will never be seen in public, until now, the artists sketch book, Dina Brodsky started keeping a sketchbook at the age of 18, when most of her content was a collection of scattered thoughts and scribbles, today, the artist and curator has transformed this practice into wildly detailed pages that combine architectural watercolors with notes written in an organized script. As curator-in-residence at Sugarlift in Long Island City, New York, Brodsky has organized an investigation into other contemporary artists’ notebooks in an upcoming interactive exhibition titled Sketchbook Vol 1, above sketchbook by David Morales Hernandez,

sketchbook by Diana Corvelle, the show presents sketchbooks as art objects rather than artist’s preliminary plans, giving the audience a chance to thumb through the notes and images of artists such as David Morales Hernandez, Diana Corvelle, Nicolas V. Sanchez, Paul Heaston, and Brodsky’s own sketches, full-sized works from the artists will also be on display, so one can look at how sketches and notes provide context for a final piece, while also appreciating each sketchbook as a artwork on its own, Sketchbook Vol 1. opens Saturday, January 19 at Sugarlift, and runs through February 8, 2019 by appointment, You can also peek inside Brodsky’s sketchbooks on Instagram, as I said at the beginning of the post, 'some people have so much talent'.
