Hot Off the Press

From Matrix to Masterpiece

This exhibition brings together works from the permanent collection highlighting the full spectrum of printmaking techniques, including intaglio, relief, lithography, and serigraphy. Spanning centuries of innovation, the selection emphasizes both the art historical significance of these prints and the processes that shaped them. From the precision of engraved lines to the boldness of carved blocks and the vibrant layers of screen printing, the works demonstrate the enduring dialogue between technical mastery and artistic vision.
