Calendar Months and Other Printed Matter

This exhibit catches the pulse of contemporary printmaking with its rapidly expanding digital vocabulary and intertwining of traditional processes and postmodern approaches. Curated by gallery director Carolyn Eyler, Calendar Months and Other Printed Matter features twelve artists, four from Maine and eight from across the nation. However, all the artists will produce a print in Maine. Each of the twelve artists will create a digital file for a 32" x 40" print representing one month of a year. The pigmented, museum quality prints will be sponsored and produced by Hunter Editions based in Kennebunk, Maine. Most of the artists are printmaking professors currently shaping the future of the discipline: Holly Greenberg, Deb Hall, Lynne Allen, Joel Seah, Thorsten Dennerline, Mark Franchino, Beauvais Lyons, Derek Cracco, Susan MacDougall, Laura Berman, Adriane Herman, and Alex Sax.

Each artist will also contribute a selection of other printed matter representing a variety of printmaking and interdisciplinary approaches: artist books; prints of food with scratch and sniff ink; "found" prints from fictional archives and menageries; printed textiles with Native American references; digital landscapes inspired by type, language and its transformation; painted, printed, cast, and carved bathroom objects; prints combining traditional printmaking processes and computer graphics; silkscreen prints and installation with invisible ink prints and magic potion; linoleum prints cut from manipulated digital photographs; free tattoos in candy jars, and more.
