International Print Exchange III - Celebration of the Day of the Dead and the Centenary of the death of Posada a prominent Mexican printmaker. ( see June 2013 Blog entry)
Each printmaker who entered, submitted an edition of 15 of a print on the theme and in exchange they will receive a set number of prints (12) by other printmakers who have submitted editions. This exhibition is the whole collection of submitted images in such a variety of printing techniques from all over the world. Printmaker Damon Kowarsky is the driving force behind this exhibition in Melbourne. All are invited to come along to the opening. I am looking forward to receiving my exchange prints from America in the mail shortly and also seeing the whole collection of over 200 prints.
