Invitation: Print project in Bushwick this weekend

Drawing has become an increasingly important part of my art practice, and this weekend, four etching editions produced during a stimulating�residency at Counterproof Press�(located on the campus of the University of Connecticut at Storrs) will be on display in�”Editions+Friends,� a collaborative project organized by�Theodore:Art in Bushwick. The etchings – jumbled interpretations of geometric forms observed in�everyday life – are beautifully printed by master printer and amazing artist�Laurie Sloan, and have never been shown�in New York.�Four copies of the Good Morning Drawings, an artist book created in conjunction with a�summer exhibition at SEASON in Seattle, will also be available. I’m very excited to show my�work alongside editions�by talented friends, including Michelle Vaughan, Oliver Wasow, Christopher Moss, Andrew Witkin, Alastair Duncan, and Richard Paul, and many others.

Editions Fawbush is pleased to join a few of our publishing colleagues for a print exhibition weekend in Bushwick coinciding with Print Week. Editions Fawbush (est. 1997), was formed to continue the publishing venture of its namesake Joe Fawbush, himself a print publisher since 1985. Skewing towards the conceptual in nature, EF’s projects have embraced the established as well as the younger artists in today’s print market, editioning multiples & works on paper in equal measure.

For this outing, Editions Fawbush brings a small selection of past projects, including works by Kamrooz Aram, Sue De Beer, Gardar Eide Einarsson, Eve Fowler, Wayne Gonzales, Alexander Ross, Shahzia Sikander, John F. Simon, Jr. & Richard Tuttle.

After re-locating to her hometown of Swansea her studio organically�developed into an artist�s run gallery, Galerie Simpson (Swansea) opening in July 2014. In order to support this non profit gallery and in the spirit of a DIY fundraising, the Galerie Simpson Selection Box has been devised. An instant art collection with editions by some of the biggest names in the British Art World, all of which have been created especially and donated.

Ginger maps networks of creative people. In keeping with the logic of a network, all of the contributors are referred by an editor or contributor from a previous issue. As a feminist publication, we are committed to supporting the work of self-identified women and queer/trans/gender non-conforming individuals and strive to share the experiences and distinctive voices of those who identify as such. Our goal is to produce a zine with a diverse range of forms, content, and viewpoints. Jacqueline Cantu + Markee Speyer co-founded Ginger together in the spring of 2015, and just published the tenth issue.
