    Gallery closed on Feb 16

    RECEPTION: Wednesday, Feb 4 | 11am – 1pm

    ARTIST TALK: Wednesday, Feb 4 | 11:30am

    This exhibition informs the public about the nature of contemporary printmaking as used by these local artists in their individual practices; from traditional approaches using multiplicity found in techniques of intaglio, woodblock, silk screen, and lithography, to ideas of seriality incorporating methods of installation, collage, video montage, and bookmaking.

    Featured artists include established educators, independent practitioners, and early-career artists who are affiliated with our California Community College and University educational systems. This exhibit brings together nationally established figures who use both traditional and contemporary methods with current innovators who are exploring the potentiality of the medium as a vehicle for conversations on contemporary cultural issues.

    These artists, in a variety of ways promote the universal accessibility of print medium and are involved in education, publication, technical innovation, and community outreach in our Southern California communities.
