National Touring print show NOW OPENING atChicago Cultural Center in ChicagoApr 17, 2010 - Jun 27, 2010After a terrific run at the Reginald F. Lewis Museum of Art in Baltimore, this exhibition moves on to Chicago with an opening reception on April 23rd from 6-8pm. For panel discussion and gallery talks please visit their website at: From Process to Print: Graphics Works by Romare Bearden Focusing in depth on his graphic oeuvre, From Process to Print offers the unique opportunity to examine his printmaking process as Bearden worked and re-worked familiar images and themes. Consisting of over 75 works, the exhibition includes both series and individual prints in varied print mediums; collages and photomontages that inspired some of the prints and plates; and matrixes that demonstrate the processes behind the touring works. Considering Bearden's approach to printmaking as influenced by his collaborations with master printmakers, From Process to Print brings to light the key themes and motifs (trains, family life, rituals, urban scenes, jazz and mythology) and their role in the expansion of Bearden's artistic imagination. The exhibition is available for tour through 2012 and is accompanied by a major publication with essays by art historians and master printmakers who worked with the artist. The tour of this exhibition is managed by Landau Traveling Exhibitions of Los Angeles, California. For the exhibition website click here http://www.a-r-t.com/bearden/
