Compact Prints, Umbrella Studio: Enter Soon

August 24, 2020 by Anthea Boesenberg Leave a Comment

 

 
 

 Umbrella Studio Contemporary Arts invites artists working in traditional and digital print media to participate in the 10th Compact Prints International Print Exhibition & Exchange. The project has been Umbrella’s signature biennial exhibition since 2002. It has evolved into a significant benchmark of international engagement and networking for printmakers and as a forum to exchange artwork and ideas. It also provides artists an opportunity to exhibit in a contemporary gallery space while supporting Umbrella through its fundraising auction.
 
This year, Umbrella is asking artists to post / deliver 3 identical prints (from 1 edition) at 12 x 12cm to Umbrella: 1 print is exhibited (and kept by Umbrella for archiving and potential touring); 1 is auctioned as a fundraiser for Umbrella to assist with event and touring costs; and 1 print is posted as an artwork exchange with another participant, through a random selection process. The exhibition, artworks and details will also be documented and presented digitally. Artists from North Queensland (or those willing to travel) may also opt to book for our Compact Prints Workshop Series which includes registration.
