by exhibition at CityScape
From the Press Release:
A diverse printmaking exhibition by members of the Art Institute of Capilano University that explores a microcosm of dynamic changes occurring in international print culture, especially with regard to the digital revolution.
The exhibition includes a variety of printmaking processes- everything from the classical etching, relief and silkscreen to the more modern photo and digital work, often in combination with each other. Through these processes, the artists explore the surfaces and possibilities of scale, embossments, enamels, rare Japanese Gampi papers and metallic surfaces.
The exhibition will showcase diverse images and concepts- every thing from environmental issues, technology and the human condition to the creative act, music and ecology.
The exhibiting artists are: Hans-Christian Behm, Katie Dey, Wayne Eastcott, Roger Fidler, Peter Frey, Orianne Johnson, Bonnie Jordan, Christel Kleinewillinghoefer, Marja-Leena Rathje, Linda Robertson, Joan Smith, Michiko Suzuki, Francis Tremblay.
Free Artist Talk and Demonstration: Saturday, February 11, 1-3 pm. An artist’s talk and demonstration on relief and intaglio printing plates and process. Please register: 604-988-6844 or exhibitions@nvartscouncil.ca
Everyone is welcome! Our group is excited to be showing in the lovely and spacious Cityscape Community Art Space at 335 Lonsdale Avenue in North Vancouver.

I hope that you get a lot of appreciative visitors.
If we would have a fat bank account we would find someone to take care of Lidia the Cat and come over there, and then of course down on the coast a bit…
Sigh!
Good luck for you exhibition!!!
I am plotting a way to get up there for the opening. I would love to be there.
Olga, thank you!
Ripsa, kiitos, thank you! I too wish you could come here and we could meet and you could afterwards visit your old home grounds in Oregon. Some day?
Anne, it would be truly lovely to see you again! It was wonderful of you to make the effort to see our group show on Bowen Island two and a half years ago. I hope the weather will be better in early February.
Wish I could see this, Marja-Leena. Hope you’ll take some photo. Very best wishes for the show, I’m sure your work will shine!
Natalie, thank you, and I too wish you could be here. We could talk about our shared experiences in printmaking. Yes, I will take photos and post them.
Hope you have a lovely opening and show, Marja-Leena!
Marly, many thanks!
You know I’d love to see the show and if it was on this coast rather than that one I would. I hope it’s a popular venue for Vancouver art lovers.
Susan, wish you could be here, and I too hope many art lovers will visit.
Good luck with the exhibition, I do wish I could see it 🙂 I like your new blog design very much
Leena, kiitos, thank you for the good wishes, and I too wish you could be at this evening’s opening. And I’m pleased you like the blog redesign too.
We wish we could be there with you, Marja-Leena! Hoping it’s a great success, and that you will show us lots of pictures.
Beth, it would have been so wonderful if you both could have been there. Since your comment I’ve posted a few photos of the opening, and yes, it was a success, thank you.
