This year’s theme “Going Green” gives one hope that art can inspire all of us to think about the ecological impact we have on the earth. Artists were asked to donate an edition of 20 original prints inspired by the earth. Ideas in the prints range from motivational text to criticisms of genetic engineering to quiet reflections of natural wonders. Artists were similarly encouraged to consider using naturally made products for their prints including, but not limited to, natural inks, hand-made or recycled paper, found or recycled objects, and eco-friendly printing techniques. The exhibition should satisfy the art appreciator, collector or environmentalist in all of us. |
