NEW
PRINTS 2003/Summer
International
Print Center New York announces the ninth presentation of its
New Prints Program from Wednesday, June 18th through Friday, July
25th in its gallery at 526 West 26th Street in Chelsea. New Prints
2003/Summer is one of a series of juried exhibitions organized
by IPCNY, presenting current prints by artists at all stages of
their careers.
With
New Prints 2003/Summer, IPCNY continues its rotating presentations
of contemporary artists' prints, establishing an ongoing exhibition
venue for new work and a central source of information about artists
working in the medium of printmaking. For New Prints 2003/Summer,
the Selections Committee (which changes with each New Prints exhibition)
was comprised of the following members: Alyson Baker, Executive
Director, Socrates Sculpture Park; Judith Brodsky, Founding Chairman,
Rutgers Center for Innovative Print and Paper and a Trustee of
IPCNY; Gabriella de Ferrari, writer; Gerrit Lansing, collector
and art historian; James Siena, artist; and Marilyn Symmes, independent
curator. Ms. Symmes also contributed the curatorial essay for
the exhibition. Sandra Lang continues in her role as consultant
to the program.
IPCNY
received some 800 submissions for New Prints 2003/Summer, all
released within the past year. The committee selected fifty-four
prints (including artists' books and printed objects), representing
the work of thirty-one artists and drawn from a wide range of
sources. In addition to prints published by the artists themselves,

the greater appreciation and understanding of the fine art print
worldwide. Through innovative programming, it fosters a climate

program of workshop and gallery visits, and has established an
informational website and Information Desk available to the public
at the center. IPCNY depends upon public and private donations
to support its programs.
