CELEBRATING THE COLLABORTIVE IMPULSE IN PRINTMAKING

Celebrating 25 years of artists, art, and ideas in 2025, the Kansas City Art Institute’s Artspace kicks off its anniversary year with Imprint, an exhibition drawn from the KCAI teaching collection. The exhibition considers the rich 60-plus year legacy of printmaking at KCAI and celebrates Master Printer and Alumnus Jack Lemon (“63 Painting), along with Landfall Press.

Visit the ARTSPACE website: https://www.kcai.edu/artspace/artspace-exhibitions/Imprint/ for more information and event scheduling.

An opening reception will be held on Friday, January 31, from 6:00-8:00 pm, followed by a dynamic schedule of public programs that include a series of film and lecture screenings and convenings led by visiting artists at the Artspace on the Kansas City Art Insitute campus. Imprint highlights early formative projects led by Jack Lemon during his time on the KCAI campus in the 1960s and since the founding of Landfall Press in 1970. The exhibition emphasizes the aesthetic and conceptual range of approaches by several renowned artists of our time who engaged in the collaborative culture of printmaking at Landfall Press. It explores rich narratives and bold experimentation that has greatly expanded the boundaries of traditional printmaking.This exhibition features editions by celebrated regional, national and international artists including: Terry Allen, Ghada Amer, Judy Chicago, Christo, Richard Diebenkorn, Lesley Dill, Rosalyn Drexler, Suzanne Gauthier, Peregrine Honig, David Levinthal, Philip Pearlsetin, Peter Saul, Jeanette Pasin-Sloan, Kara Walker, H.C. Westermann and William T. Wiley .
