Sydney Printmakers opening In November

The Sydney Printmakers held an opening on November 14 in Chippendale, and Basil was asked to say a few words. The exhibition comprised the work of 83 artists from Australia and New Zealand, so was a fascinating cross section of print-based work in those two countries. Some of the participants have been making prints for as long as the Sydney Printmakers have been in existence, which is now over 50 years! Unfortunately, the show has now come down, but we wanted to draw attention to the great job that print organisations do to promote the work of their members and to educate the public about the exciting creative possibilities in our chosen medium.
