20:20 Print Exchange 2011

After the success of last year’s 20:20 Print Exchange organised by Hot Bed Press, 10 members of WYPW have again taken part this year, to each produce an original, limited edition print on 20 x 20cm paper. It was really exciting to see all the prints being produced in the WYPW workshops, and I think we’ve got a really great variety of styles and techniques this year. They have now been boxed up and sent off to Hot Bed Press, and each artist and workshop which has taken part will receive back a box of 20 randomly selected prints – one of their own and 19 others. There were around 15 other workshops from around the UK and Ireland taking part this year, and it was really good to be involved in such a big project.

West Yorkshire Print Workshop will be displaying 40 of these prints – including all 10 produced by WYPW members – in the downstairs corridor gallery, from FRIDAY 25TH NOVEMBER, which un-coincidentally is also the date of the FLOURISH PRINT AWARD prizegiving evening from 6.30 – 8.30pm, so you can come and see the 20:20 prints at the same time!
