This international exhibition is open for all artists practicing fine art printmaking. Artists are encouraged to submit up to 2 original artworks for the exhibition with a maximum print size of 22 x 30 inches. We are glad to be a part of the global reopening this year and invite artists from around the world to join us in leaving their “print” on the creative community. In addition, the exhibition this year invites all participating artists to share a video of their own printmaking studio practice, giving our audience a glimpse of studio techniques, concepts, processes from around the world.

Returning this year and based on the success of last year’s glow room, we are again opening an option for artists to exhibit in Authentic Glow, our glow-in-the-dark and blacklight gallery space. In addition to our regular printmaking exhibition, we are also opening the glow space for all printmakers to participate if interested.  Any works that utilize either glow in the dark or blacklight-reactive techniques are welcome to apply, with a maximum print size of 22 x 30 inches.  Examples from last year’s room are on the website and we look forward to seeing what you have to add to this unique concept!

All works in Authentic Marks & Authentic Glow will be exhibited and included in the exhibition catalog, which will be sent electronically to every participating artist.
