Press Gang Exhibition of Printmaking

Press Gang’s annual summer exhibition of printmaking features the work of ten local artists: Alison Veazey, Anita Reynolds, Caroline Barker, Diana Miller, Hilary Soper, Maggie Smith, Rosemary Moser, Steve Kenna, Claudia White and Ysabel Winzar.

Works include etching, drypoint, engraving, collagraph, woodcut, linocut and monotype prints.

For the last fifteen years Mike Glanville has run a printmaking workshop at Salcombe Art Club, and the artists involved form a lively group, sharing ideas and techniques in the mutually supportive and creative environment of the Loft Studio. With a firm grounding in traditional printmaking techniques, the artists often take a contemporary, experimental approach to their work.
Members of Press Gang will be in the gallery throughout the fortnight, and will be happy to explain how printing plates are made, and how ink is transferred from plate to paper, creating each time an original work of art.
