The advent of printmaking in Europe during the Renaissance launched an Information Revolution. Artists were instrumental to this transformation impacting art, science and literacy. Prints by Dürer, Van Dyck, Rembrandt, Piranesi, and Hogarth are now among the most sought after works of their eras. This exhibition spans five centuries of European and American printmakers from Old Masters to Paul Gauguin, Hannah Höch, Franz Marc and Marc Chagall. Tours will explore the broad chronological survey of printmaking and investigate specific themes like allegories and the notion of the peintre-graveur (painter-engraver).
