OFF-REGISTER 2008

Foundation Projects presents Off-Register, a traveling group exhibition of experimental printmaking.The Off-Register exhibition will showcase prints by a collection of international artists and graphic designers associated through the professional practice of commercial print design, but that do not consider themselves printmakers.

This exhibition explores the relationship the! se artists and graphic designers have to printing and how commercial processes may inform more traditional methods of fine art print making. The title, Off-Register, refers to a mis-registered color plate pass during printing, as well as acknowledging the artists and designers experimentation with the various techniques of traditional printmaking. Each artist will present one print, produced in editions, that utilize and experiment with various traditional fine art printmaking techniques: serigraphy, lithography, etching, various transfer, block printing, as well as incorporating unconventional methods and experimental techniques of print impressions.

The first stop on this year long exhibition tour opens February 29, 2008 at Chicago’s newly opened AV-aerie exhibition space, located in the former Open End gallery which previously hosted such exhibitions as Up Our Slee! ves and Tragic Beauty.
