Exhibition Description

The LUX Center for the Arts, in cooperation with Constellation Studios, will present our third biennial ‘Surface Impressions,’ an ambitious international juried exhibition focusing on hand-produced relief prints from woodblock, linoleum cut, wood engraving, and mixed media relief prints. This showcase will continue our work of bringing fine art prints to the fore, empowering Lincoln, NE to join in a world-wide conversation about creative innovations in prints. Surface Impressions intends to connect artists and audiences to the contemporary language of relief printmaking as a viable artistic engagement for the world we find ourselves faced with now and into the future. 

This biennial of relief prints here in the center of America will showcase artists from around the country and abroad, all selected from an open call for entries. The works on exhibition focus on the role of the relief print as a means of cultural critique and exploration of this ancient but newly invigorated discipline as practiced and defined by today’s artists. 

Up to seventy-five prints will be selected by visiting guest juror Valpuri Remling, Master Printmaker at the Tamarind Institute. Fifty prints will be on display at the LUX Center for the Arts, and 25 will be on display at Constellation Studios. Cash prizes for the top three winners. One print will be selected for acquisition by the Sheldon Museum in Lincoln.
