Drawing Center
The Drawing Center is a Manhattan, New York, museum and a nonprofit exhibition space that focuses on the exhibition of drawings, both historical and contemporary.
== History ==
The Drawing Center was founded by former assistant curator of drawings at the Museum of Modern Art Martha Beck〔Paul Vitello (January 22, 2014), (Martha Beck, Founder of the Drawing Center, Dies at 75 ) ''New York Times''.〕 in 1977, with the mandate of seeking to "express the quality and diversity of drawing -- unique works on paper -- as a major art form". It was originally housed in $900-a-month ground-floor space in a warehouse at 137 Greene Street in SoHo〔Paul Vitello (January 22, 2014), (Martha Beck, Founder of the Drawing Center, Dies at 75 ) ''New York Times''.〕 before it moved to its present location, on the ground floor of a 19th-century cast-iron-fronted building at 35 Wooster Street, in the late 1980s.〔Carol Vogel (February 3, 2011), (The Drawing Center Expands Beyond Its Lines ) ''New York Times''.〕 In its first year, the Drawing Center attracted 125,000 visitors.〔
After a $10 million renovation in 2012, designed by Claire Weisz of WXY Architecture & Urban Design, the museum today occupies two and a half floors, 50 percent more exhibition space.〔Ted Loos (September 5, 2012), (Same Museum, but a Brand-New Look ) ''New York Times''.〕
