The exhibition features works from over 40 prominent international artists, showcasing intriguing parallels and unexpected shifts in their use of the strokeline. Spanning from the late 19th century to today, it highlights key milestones in the genre’s development and its diverse themes and techniques.

A special highlight in this book’s design is the deep embossing on it's cover——tactically reminiscent of drawing and colourful punctuation throughout the book’s text.
