“The Curator Gallery  presented Print Facets: Five Centuries of Printmaking, curated by Rebecca Michelman.

The printmaking of over forty contemporary artists stands alongside historical prints from the 16th to the 20th centuries, including works by Goya, Durer, Rembrandt, and Warhol.

From the 17th century mezzotint printers whose secret techniques revealed light from darkness, to the inventions of sugar lift and spit bite methods, Print Facets explored the rich and complex medium of print art. The exhibition opened on September 12th and ran through October 25th, 2014.

A selection of masters from the 17th-20th centuries were shown, including: Rembrandt van Rijn, Albercht Durer, Francisco Goya, Wallerant Valliant,  Giovanni Piranesi, Honore Daumier, Max Pechstein, Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, Andre Derain, Jacques Villon, Tod Lindenmuth, Raoul Dufy, Jan Matulka, Fritz Eichenburg, George Bellows, Edward Hopper, Martin Lewis, Harriet Lanfair, Pablo Picasso, Louis Lozowick, Letterio Calapai, Joseph Hirsch, Armin Landeck, Barnett Newman, Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, Helen Frankenthaler, and Kiki Smith.

The Curator Gallery is a fine art gallery located on 23rd Street in Chelsea which collaborates with notable guest curators for each exhibition. Founded and underwritten by Ann S. Moore, the retired Chairman and CEO of Time Inc., the gallery’s mission is to bring exposure to hardworking artists, as well as to educate and expand the pool of engaged, serious collectors. “
