Highpoint Center for Printmaking presents the fifth installment of Stand Out Prints!
This biennial juried international print exhibition is back -- printmakers from a total of 13 different countries, 6 of the 9 Canadian provinces, and 46 states in the US applied to participate in this exhibition. Invited juror William Villalongo was given the formidable task of sifting through 600+ distinct images to select approximately 50 pieces for inclusion.
Artists Include: Curtis Bartone, Shirley Bernstein, Lynnette Black, Douglas Bosley, M Sherwood Brock, Kristin Casaletto, Gino Castellanos, Ruben Castillo, Marika Christofides, Madison Cooper, John Costin, Robert Creighton, Maren Curtis, Michael DalCerro, Andrew DeCaen, Beth Dorsey, Meryl Engler, Shelley Gipson, Ellen Heck, Nicholas Hill, Sophia Isaak, Catherine Kernan, Brian Lathan, Amanda Lee, Emily Legleitner, Kathryn Lesh, Daniel Luedtke, Joseph Lupo, Brett Lysne, Elizabeth MacMillian, Jon Mahnke, Sari Majander, Leanna McAlpine, Emmett Merrill, Erin Miller, Erin Moore, Lisa Nebenzahl, Mary Ott, Gwen Partin, Princess Rashid, Jacoub Reyes, Mark Rice, Kat Richards, Alethea Richter, Nicholas Ruth, Nicole Simpkins, Mei Lam So, Catherine Sollman, Junli Song, Valerie Syposz, Taro Takizawa, Brett Taylor, R.L.

The work that William selects showcases outstanding examples of contemporary printmaking and truly celebrates the breadth of the medium with everything from the traditional/old school to novel approaches that incorporate post-digital techniques. Scale, subject matter, and technique vary but all included work is Stand Out worthy.
Artist and Curator talk with William Villalongo will take place on Oct 15th! More details about the Twin Cities Art Weekend events coming soon.
Exhibition Juror: William Villalongo lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. He was born in 1975 in Hollywood, FL, and raised in the town of Bridgeton, NJ. He received his BFA from The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art and his MFA from Tyler School of Art at Temple University. Villalongo's creative output involves studio practice, writing, and curatorial projects.
