Description


About Lines and Drawings II by SADEQUAIN Sadequain is among the very few artists whose work could be recognized by its line alone. Someone familiar with Sadequain's work can recognize his line by its power, intensity, fluidity, and precision. He could draw complicated compositions in one continuous motion of the pen without lifting it for a break. Most importantly, his drawings and paintings were not merely an exercise of craftsmanship, but an intellectual expression of his observations and convictions. He was a volcano which erupted and left behind an ocean of gems. He blasted his phrenic curiosity in the creative furnace and molded intellectual boulders to build monuments. He was not a painter of objects, but a painter of ideas. This book by SADEQUAIN Foundation titled Lines and Drawings II by SADEQUAIN is the first comprehensive collection of Sadequain's drawings. It is a result of more than four years of research and discovery of his drawings spread from Japan, Singapore, Pakistan, India, Middle East, Europe, and North America. Most of the images, about 95%, are scanned from various publications, brochures, magazines, internet, newspapers, from the images people sent to the SADEQUAIN Foundation for authentication, and from the sales announcements of his work. It is hoped that this book will be helpful in analyzing the imagery in Sadequain's drawings and establishing the links to appropriate historical and cultural context. Its empirical research and textual contents are balanced to address the sensitivities that attempt to compare and contrast arbitrary and loaded concepts.
