From the publisher:
This is the official exhibition catalogue for the 2018 Okanagan Print Triennial, a printmaking exhibition that was held from March 24 to May 27, 2018 at the Kelowna Art Gallery. The catalog is a full-colour publication that features reproductions of the works in the exhibition, as well as an essay entitled Contemporary Printmaking in the Context of Postmodernist Art, by guest writer and freelance visual arts reviewer Agnieszka Matejko.
Launched in 2009 at the Vernon Public Art Gallery, the Okanagan Print Triennial is a printmaking exhibition held every three years in British Columbia, currently at the Vernon Public Art Gallery. The project was initiated by Kelowna-based printmaker Briar Craig, and supported by the Kelowna Art Gallery, the University of British Columbia, and Vernon Public Art Gallery. The exhibition is an open, juried show dedicated to showcasing the creative forays made with printmaking in Canada and beyond. The winner of each Triennial is given a solo show at the gallery not hosting the show the third year following. What’s special about the Okanagan Print Triennial is that more than one artwork is shown from each artist. That way visitors can get a fuller sense of the printmarker’s body of work.
