The Piedmont Center for the Arts is hosting the 105th Annual Exhibition of the California Society of Printmakers. The exhibition features artwork by 69 members of the CSP, ranging from very traditional techniques to new, unusual, and experimental methods. The show will open on Friday September 14th with a reception from 6-9pm and run through October 7th.

The shortlisted artists for the On PAPER Award 2018 will be exhibited in the Spike Print Studio at Spike Island, Bristol (UK).  Private View Friday 20 July 6-9pm.  Exhibition runs from Sat 21 July to Friday 17 August.

The theme of the exhibition reflects the concerns for our planet expressed through the vital elements of life; air, water and earth, during a time of great challenge and change for our planet.

Viewers will delight in exploring the many ways that the artists probe the definition of what constitutes a book, searching for new and unexpected forms of this familiar object. Books will hang from the ceiling, crawl up the wall, cover table tops and fill the imagination. Some works challenge the conventional book format and become sculptural objects; some pop up; others play with layers.

The LAPS printmaking community at large will help raise funds from the sale of prints for student scholarships and education outreach. Each participating printmaker will receive five prints from fellow printmakers through the exchange portfolio. Each artist edition submitted is ten prints on 8” x 10” paper. 1 print will be framed and exhibited in our exhibition at Angel City Brewery in November, as well as upcoming art fairs.

Black and white portraits have always been loved by photographers and viewers. Black and white portraits offer a different aesthetic. The lack of color acts as a filter removing everything that is unnecessary, helping the viewer to focus on specific elements without distractions. In Black and white portraits, emotions can come to the surface more easily so they can be recognized and viewed, as the facial expression dominates and tells us a different story every time.
