Limited Edition: Original Artist Prints
The Porthminster Gallery opens its 2024 exhibitions programme with Limited Edition : Original Artist Prints 鈥� an informative selling show for aspiring and seasoned collectors of affordable signed and editioned original prints by established contemporary artists, alongside museum-quality prints by 20th Century St Ives and British names.
As well as featuring prints by Melvyn Evans, and Sally Spence, the show spotlights the printmaking practice of the award-winning St Ives-based artist printmaker, Trevor Price, whose Cornish Roots inspire his masterful monochrome relief engravings, colour etchings, and linocut prints. Scenes of St Ives Bay and Barbara Hepworth鈥檚 Garden are key themes in his works.
Melvyn Evans is one of Britain鈥檚 finest printmakers, whose bold, semi-abstract linocut prints are inspired by his deep connection to landscape, and his fascination with the traces left by its ancient peoples. Even so, his works exude a 鈥榤id-century modern鈥� vibe;
Sally Spens is an internationally exhibited Cornwall-based artist and printmaker, whose exquisite, intricate etchings are influenced by the artist鈥檚 designs for Japanese kimonos, and by Japanese culture.
The exhibition also features signed editioned prints by Modern 20th Century names, including: etchings by Albert Irvin, Ben Nicholson, David Hockney and Victor Pasmore; silkscreen prints by Patrick Heron and Sandra Blow; and lithographs by Barbara Hepworth 鈥� among others.
