Printmaking | Worldmaking
Printmaking | Worldmaking will present a selection of work from the Berman Museum’s print holdings, ranging from the 16th century to now. The subject matter of the prints—people, places, stories—align them in acts of worldmaking across time and various artistic styles.
In the exploration of worldmaking, the exhibition will examine the constructed narratives of the works and the perspectives, beliefs, and experiences they promote.
