"Nowadays drawing has fashioned itself into a 'medium art' by being not one discrete art form, but a composite of the arts and other forms of thinking and activity whose intermediate position- falling between the still virtually omnipresent stools of 'high' and 'low'- allows the referential character, the continual embrace of the other to come to the fore. An art whose primary feature is perhaps not mediation: drawing would then be more a 'medium art', an art positioned between the media, between the disciplines, between the hierarchical steps." Clemens Krümmel, excerpted from Linie, Line, Linea.
