An exhibition of eleven artists whose work makes use of a variety of printmaking media - a short ride in the fast machine of history. This work is not concerned with a tyrannical and exclusive tradition of technical perfection, nor any attendant closure of meaning. And so, if printmaking is a mechanical vehicle, a process of getting from one point to another, we are not travelling the conventional line. Rather than the packaged or preconceived destination, the interest is in points of departure and changes of direction.
