Gracefield Arts Centre, Dumfries, Scotland
On This Page: Date & Location | Participating Artists | Relevant Events
A joint exhibition borne from the cross pollination between artists at Fife Dunfermline Printmakers’ Workshop & local Southwest Scotland Printmakers
Artist: Olga Krasanova (Fife Dunfermline Printmakers’ Workshop)
Background:
Established as a member’s space, Dunfermline have a small workshop with an active membership. Around 19 Fife Dunfermline Workshop artists will be contributing framed and unframed editions to the show, alongside around 20 of our home-grown SWSP talent from across Dumfries & Galloway.
Lots of different techniques explored with framed work, unframed editions, cards and other printed artworks available to buy off the wall. This collaboration has come about following a ‘go and see’ studio visit to Fife back in January 2023 with some of the SWSP group, exchanging ideas and exploring ways to share best practice.
Artist: Laura Boswell (Southwest Scotland Printmakers)
