Deadline February 16, 2025

Remarque Print Workshop & Gallery invites printmakers and photographers from around the world to submit work for our exhibition, Into the Void; From the Void: Boundaries and Margins in Printmaking and Photography  to be held at Remarque Print Workshop & Gallery in Albuquerque, NM from April 11– May 31, 2025.

Into the Void; From the Void is a call to printmakers and photographers working in both traditions. We are looking for hand-printed imagery that weds together photographic elements with printmaking techniques. Any sort of photographic process (especially alternative techniques) combined with traditional printmaking is of interest to us; the final image should be a hand pulled print. Please, no solely digital output.  We are looking for images that explore the boundaries between photography and printmaking and that involve some form of hand-work. Successful images should display technical sophistication while conveying an emotional valence.

Our hope is to select images, working in both the photographic and print-making traditions, that will form a body of prints that capture the pulsing energy of the act of creation as it moves into and out from the void! We are looking for prints that create an alchemical merging of the two traditions. We hope to showcase the emerging print world that increasingly discards concern for categorical processes while making free use of techniques from all forms of print and image making. If you have any questions about the suitability of your process, please do not hesitate to contact us at director@remarqueprintshop.com.
