This exhibition presents four printmakers from the permanent collection of the Tweed Museum of Art. Their artwork attempts to create connections between the language of words and the visual language of line, shape, and color. Richard Anuszkiewicz uses repetition of forms in his striking folio of serigraphs that mimics the cadence of William Blake’s accompanying verse. John Christie also employs the serigraph technique but towards the delicate interplay of translated love poems. Ukrainian artist Boris Margo showcases his pioneering technique of cellocut in a surrealist take on the months of the year and Suzanne McClelland ruminates with lithography on a single word.
