- Abstract
Why did anthropologists make use of drawings and why did they stop doing so? This article seeks to recount the history of drawing and its regimes of visibility in the course of anthropology's own history, and discusses the relation between drawing and anthropology at the turn of the 21st Century. As Ballard noted, we are witnessing a "graphic turn" in anthropology. The fact that a number of anthropologists are showing a renewed interest in drawing leads back to the author's preliminary question: why do anthropologists (still) use drawing in their fieldwork practice, and to what effect in terms of methodology and research findings? By discussing these questions, the author seeks to shed some light on the past, present and, eventually, future direction of the practice of drawing within that of anthropological.
