DESCRIPTION:Participate in a drawing session led by London-based artist Catherine 
 Goodman on the occasion of ‘Catherine Goodman. New Works’ her first 
 exhibition in Los Angeles opening 27 February at Hauser & Wirth Downtown 
 LA.\n\nDeveloped as part of the Drawing from Film program at The Royal 
 Drawing School, participants are invited to call for the film to be paused 
 at any given still to complete fast-paced drawings in semi-darkness. These 
 playful interactions offer new ways of looking and are an opportunity to 
 see through the cinematographer’s point of view.\n\nThis session in Los 
 Angeles will feature the film ‘Paris, Texas’ (1984) directed by Wim 
 Wenders (2h 25 min). The film documents the travels of Travis Henderson, an 
 aimless drifter who has been missing for four years, who wanders out of the 
 desert and must reconnect with society, himself and his family.\n\nGoodman 
 will offer a viewing of her exhibition for workshop participants in advance 
 of its opening date. The viewing will begin at 5.30 pm and the workshop 
 will follow at 6 pm.\n\nThe film has an MPAA rating of R. The workshop will 
 be 18+; no minors are allowed. All drawing abilities are welcomed. If 
 people have their own materials, they are welcome to bring them, but it is 
 not necessary as some drawing materials will be provided.\n\nTickets for 
 this workshop are $15 each. All workshop fee proceeds will be donated to 
 Inner-City Arts. Participants can reach info@hauserwirth.com and inquire 
 about our accessible pricing options. Seating is limited, RSVP is 
 required.\n\nAbout Catherine Goodman\n\nFor more than four decades, 
 Catherine Goodman CBE has developed a unique visual language that 
 communicates a powerful visionary response to her lived experience and 
 memory. Goodman’s intensely expressive painting process uses strongly 
 pigmented oil paint, brushwork, oil sticks, drips and washes to create 
 atmospheric and immersive paintings which explore both figuration and 
 abstraction.\n\nCentral to Goodman’s artistic process is the act of 
 drawing directly from life, her intimate knowledge of the old master 
 painters and drawing from film, where she immerses in the legends of the 
 modern cinema age. In Goodman’s words, “drawing can bring about a sense 
 of unity and create a portal into other realms of consciousness." This 
 daily practice roots her mark-making in observation and informs and 
 enriches her paintings.\n\nCatherine Goodman’s role as an educator is 
 integral to her artistic identity. Since graduating from art school, 
 Goodman has been organizing drawing classes for the homeless and other 
 community groups, demonstrating a longstanding commitment to social justice 
 in art education. In 2000, this led her to co-establish the Royal Drawing 
 School with HRH King Charles III, to address the increasing absence of 
 drawing in art education and to give wider access to disadvantaged 
 students.\n\nAbout Inner-City Arts\n\nInner-City Arts offers a safe, 
 creative space in Los Angeles where more than 200,000 children have been 
 invited to create and explore. Inner-City Arts provides quality arts 
 instruction for students from underserved communities, integrated arts 
 workshops for educators, and programming designed for the community.\n\n
