The goal of this exchange is to promote the development of the finest artistic ideas and talents in contemporary printmaking. They are looking for artists at any stage in their artistic lives to dedicate time to the development of an edition of eleven prints. They are looking for people who are passionately dedicated to printmaking, who don’t have access to a press, who have regular access, who print by hand, those who collage, make precise editions, make variable editions, those who can afford the time to work on prints every day, and those who sneak in time whenever possible to develop imagery.
For the creation of an edition of eleven prints you will receive ten unique prints in return from artists all over the world. One print from each edition will be archived permanently at Wheat Farm Press as a record of what is being produced within the print community at this period in time.
