WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Clark Art Institute's First Sundays Free program continues on Sunday, Nov. 1, with a day celebrating drawing. 

 

Admission to the galleries is free all day, but advance registration is necessary. Visitors are invited to experience the art of figure drawing in the exhibition "Lines from Life" and then try complimentary drawing activities inspired by the exhibition. 

 

"Lines from Life" celebrates Herbert and Carol Diamond, highlighting works from the couple's collection of more than 160 French drawings and sculptures, assembled since 1964. The exhibition features works by nineteenth-century French artists, including Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, Eugène Delacroix, Edgar Degas, Jean-Léon Gérôme, and Odilon Redon and illustrates varied methods of figure drawing, from academic methods of drawing the human form to freer approaches that challenged those conventions. Lines from Life" is on view through Dec. 13.
