To print or not to print? Join us at Open Studio on October 22 at 6:00pm for an artist talk with Dr. Ruth Pelzer-Montada, exploring the relevance of printmaking in contemporary, multi- and interdisciplinary art. She will discuss why print has been historically marginalized and how its material, conceptual, and technical qualities shape current artistic practice, showcasing examples of expanded printmaking that retain the medium’s distinctive “printerliness.”
