Abstract:

The Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts in Winston-Salem, North Carolina recently acquired three prints of Virginia scenery, including Natural Bridge, the Potomac River, and Harper’s Ferry. These pieces provide insight into the process by which landscape prints were produced and the artistic selection of topographical views during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.

Abstract:

The Museum will display a selection of prints by Edvard Munch which focus on the symbolism in his work. Munch was a Norwegian artist whose paintings, drawings, and prints draw the viewer into his inner world of raw emotion and anxiety. Munch explored themes such of love and jealousy, loneliness and anxiety, and sickness and death in his work through symbolism. This exhibition looks at Munch’s achievement as a printmaker and was one of the most influential and prolific printmakers of the modern era.

Abstract:

Earl Bailey has dedicated much of his life to the art of printmaking at the Martin County Enterprise and Weekly Herald in Williamston. When Bailey began his career in the 1960s, the newspaper used letterpresses to print type on newsprint. Though the newspaper is no longer printed in Williamston, Bailey still does a lot of press work on stationary, letterheads and business cards.
