PRINTS: Old Masters to Moderns
On view in the Grand Gallery
February 12 - March 29
Since the early sixteenth century, the potential of the print medium was being fully explored by artists and had a decisive impact on the history of art and collecting. Prints provided artists with an outlet for experimentation as well as a sense of freedom to explore their own interests. Once considered a standard of affordability among collectors, prints and multiples now have the attraction to rival the value of works on canvas in today’s market. This special exhibition presents an overview of printmaking techniques from Rembrandt to the present day. Included are works by Goya, Tiepolo, Whistler, Picasso, Léger, Oldenburg, Christo, Barnet, Kyle Staver, Elizabeth Peyton and more. Many of these prints are from the Club’s fine collection of works on paper.
