Print exhibition at Jazz Gallery Center for the Arts
Printmaking has often been called the most democratic of art media, as it lends itself to creating multiples that can be distributed widely, purchased inexpensively and shared with a broader audience. Printmaking, for that reason, has often been the medium of artistic resistance. The Riverwest neighborhood is home to a number of talented printmakers, studios and collective print shops. This exhibition highlights a variety of print artists work and Riverwest’s rich printmaking resources.
Also opening simultaneously is a Small Wall show of works by local printmaker and illustrator, Hunter Louis.
This exhibition is free and open to the public.
Jazz Gallery Center for the Arts (JGCA) is a non-profit organization serving Southeastern Wisconsin with a diverse range of visual and performing arts programming, created by a diverse community of visual and performing artists. At JGCA we provide opportunities to create, present, and experience the arts.
