SUMMARY:PRINT PAINT: The interaction of printmaking and painting by 12 Westbeth artists
DESCRIPTION:October 8 – November 12\, 2022\nOpening Reception Saturday Oct 8. 5pm – 8pm \nWalking Tour Artist Talk October 22\, 2022 3pm – 5pm\nPRINT/PAINT is an exhibition of twelve multidisciplinary and long-term Westbeth residents initially intended to mark the 50th Anniversary of the Westbeth Graphics Studio in 2020. After a two-year postponement due to the COVID pandemic\, the show opens with a new concept in Westbeth Gallery\, honoring the Graphics Studio and highlighting possibilities of printmaking by placing it in direct conversation with painting.  \nBeyond these twelve artists\, within Westbeth\, there is an array of communities and sub-communities dedicated to a continued and specific practice. PRINT/PAINT is ultimately a celebration of the versatility of artists’ practices that thrive in the creative oasis where lifelong experimentation is encouraged and expected. Residency in Westbeth has offered these artists a platform to share their expressions in print and painting form with freedom and support. PRINT/PAINT is an example of what can be when access\, funding\, and support collide with an unfettered creative process.  \n– from Introductory Essay by Izzy Nova \nParticipating Artists\nJuanita McNeely (b.1936\, St. Louis\, MO) moved to New York in 1967 and became entrenched in the city’s artistic community and feminist collectives. Her depiction of the human figure displays extreme physicality—pairing angst and pain in close tandem with a sheer pleasure of existence in body and mind. With the challenges of patriarchal discourse and illness from an early age\, McNeely’s art is a lifeline that transforms notions of who may and may not handle certain imagery.
