	Thin Black Line: A celebration of the many forms of drawing The Second Annual Artword Gallery Print & Drawing Show: June 5 to August 13, 2001
	Meiko Ando Meiko Ando is an artist and dancer born in Japan and now living in Toronto. "These images are born from my dance performance. They are sometimes created on the stage, sometimes by daydreaming, and sometimes by dancing in spaces in Nature such as river, lake and forest. They are stories of our life cycles – life and death and also about the unknown which exists but is invisible to our eyes." Meiko Ando has exhibited at the Creative Spirit Art Centre in Toronto (1998 and 2000), Boreal Art/Nature in L’Annonciation, Quebec (2000), and the Conseil Quebecois de l’estampe Gallerie in Montreal (2001). She is the recipient of an Arts Toronto Protegé Award at the Art Gallery of Ontario, 1999. Nomi Drory Nomi Drory is an artist living and working in Toronto. She teaches are at the Art Centre of Central Technical School. She has a Bachelor of Architecture degree from Israel Institute of Technology, a Fine Art Diploma from Central Technical School in Toronto, and a Bachelor of Education from OISE, U of T. She has participated in a number of group shows in Tel Aviv, Israel, in Sidney, Australia and in Toronto. "In these drawings I have attempted to explore notions of space – both internal and external – and to explore the tension and interrelationship between the observer and the observed. Working with vine charcoal on paper, I have sought to emphasize tone rather than line – to "paint" with the instrument, rather than draw. The two self-portraits represent a physical response to an emotional state. Enclosed in their tight, narrow spaces, the figures are paradoxically exposed and in hiding. The hand acts as a mask, yet the eye is revealed." Jerry Silverberg Jerry Silverberg is a visual artist, illustrator working in Toronto. His work has been shown in many galleries and cafés throughout the city. As an illustrator his work has appeared in Toronto Life Magazine, Saturday Night and the Canadian Literary Review. He has also illustrated several books of poetry. Most recently, his work has often appeared in the Globe and Mail. Working primarily as a printmaker, he uses the process of the monotype (also known as ‘the painterly print’). Unlike other print processes, only one print is produced, therefore making these original and unique works of art. Ferenc Zakanyi Ferenc Zakanyi is an artist from Hungary now living in France. "Truth, as I see it, comes from my life experiences. Life is struggle and success; joy and pain; laughter and drudgery, all mixed in with the unexpected. The unexpected prompts progress in both my life and art. I am deeply disturbed by injustice. My art is an effort to correct the injustices that I see. Incongruity affects me just as profoundly. I try to balance incongruous elements in life through my art. The result is usually a humorous drawing. I enjoy working in colour pencils because of their great range of effects and the rapid action they allow. Once I have created the outline of the form, I play with colour, texture and emotion. My goal is to create a powerful reaction in the viewer."
