Opening Event: Nov 12^th 7:00PM-9:00PM

The Kansas City Art Institute’s Printmaking Department is kicking off the weekend early on Thursday November 12^th 2009 with an all-inclusive, department-wide exhibition featuring NEW (hot off the presses!) work by the printmaking majors who are at all levels of their undergraduate education at KCAI.  Come to the Foundations Building located in the West Bottoms on Friday, November 12^th to see brand new visual creations that surpass the amazing and raise the bar of contemporary fine art printing to a new level of magician-ship!

 

Stop! Look around you. What do you see? Print, right? Print is everywhere. It is hard to find an escape from the bombardment of consumer advertisements and “Get Ripped” opportunities in printed magazines, leaving us as a whole desensitized to the real power of the printed image.  However, the artwork exhibited in the KCAI print show PRINT MAGIC IS: UNDER PRESSURE will bring much needed clarity upon this problem, allowing the viewer to visually consume imagery that is nothing short of fun, healthy, and above all MAGICAL, which is difficult in the midst of a visual clutter crisis.

 

This exhibition will showcase a variety of both traditional and unorthodox (at least in today’s standards) printing methods in which these students are well versed. These printing processes include, but are not limited to: letterpress printing, lithography, etching, silk-screen as well as experimental forms of digital printing.  While many of the processes employed in the creation of these individual works have been replaced with faster, digital alternatives (at least in the commercial world), these students have created captivating visual goodies abundant with imagery, layers, and process, which helps reclaim our right to a wholly enjoyable visual experience.
