About this exhibition
Artists are often trailblazers. They experiment, push boundaries, and constantly explore and expand upon what is believed possible. Etching is an artistic medium and technique whose history and practice exemplifies the drive toward and for innovation.
The artists featured here, from Daniel Hopfer and Guido Reni to Mary Cassatt and Joan Miró, use etching and related printmaking processes to depict their subjects, but also to summon thoughts and emotions. The choice of medium is deliberate, used intentionally as a means of storytelling. By experiencing these images, we may forge a connection to the innovative spirit embedded within the works of art.
