CF Webber Gallery presents second biennial printmaking exhibit

The College of Central Florida Webber Gallery will present “The 2024 Extreme Pressure Biennial of American Prints,” a celebration of contemporary printmaking, Aug. 5-Sept. 12. The competitive exhibition will include a variety of works by printmakers from across the United States.

Artworks will be judged by Texas-based artist Katherine Brimberry, an intaglio master printer who is known for her “painterly” etchings. Brimberry’s work is included in the collections of the Library of Congress, 3M permanent collection, the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Galveston Arts Center, Amarillo Museum of Art and Texas Tech University Library. She co-founded Flatbed Press to be a publishing press for fine art prints and open studio for artist-printmakers, and is now the sole owner, serving as director and lead collaborating master printer.

Five cash prizes, totaling a minimum of $2,000, will be awarded at the opening reception on Thursday, Aug. 22, from 5-7 p.m. The public is invited to attend.

The Webber Gallery is open Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and admission is free. For more information about the exhibition, visit CF.edu/Webber or call 352-854-2322, ext. 1664.
