Today I visited Fremantle Arts Centre for the Print Awards exhibition. I wanted to check out the entries in this juried exhibition and see if I might enter in the future and win the $16,000 prize!
I was surprised by what was considered a print in this exhibition. There were the obvious lino cuts, wood cuts, screen prints and lithographs which I clearly recognised as prints. There were also other artworks which I thought were more photographs or paintings. There were quite a few works on fabric and some art books too.
Many of the artists had chosen to work in traditional black and white (including the first prize winner).
I enjoyed seeing how the works were mounted directly on the wall with pins and tabs - no frames. It's an interesting exhibition, go take a look if you are in the area.
