Making an Impression brings together contemporary prints by artists working with Open Studio, an artist-run, non-profit printmaking centre that has provided support for making, learning, and exhibiting different forms of printmaking in Toronto for more than fifty years.
This exhibition celebrates a variety of approaches to printmaking and includes several different techniques including linocut, screenprint, monoprint, etching, and woodcut. The uniting factor in each way of working is the act of impression or transfer – building an image through the layering of marks pressed from one surface (a woodblock, silkscreen, etching plate) to paper.
All works in the exhibition are available for sale through Open Studio’s online shop.
Visit Open Studio at 401 Richmond Street West, Toronto, or find out more online at www.openstudio.ca/.
This exhibition continues Hotel Victoria’s partnership with Open Studio. Read our blog post with Curator, Rebecca Travis about selecting artworks from Open Studio for Hotel Victoria’s recent renovation, here: A Visual Window into Toronto: Meet Art Curator Rebecca Travis.
