Master Graphics - The Art of Printmaking

From 1st July 2016, Halcyon Gallery will present Master Graphics – The Art of Printmaking, a rare and insightful collection of works on paper. Featuring art by the leading artists of the twentieth century, this exhibition is a must-see for art lovers and collectors alike.

Master Graphics – The Art of Printmaking encompasses works from practitioners on both sides of the Atlantic. Important works by Henri Matisse, Joan Miró and Pablo Picasso are displayed alongside the early Pop protagonists Lichtenstein, Haring and Warhol. From etchings to aquatints, lithographs, carborundum prints and portfolios, Master Graphics is a vivid and exciting culmination of the very best printmaking on display in Halcyon Gallery.

Since the 16th century, printmaking has held an exceptional place in art history and prints now play a major contribution to museum collections and retrospective exhibitions. Master Graphics – The Art of Printmaking conveys the progression in time of prints - through the delicacy and depth of tone, variation in colour, diversity of line and the emotion conveyed. With a specialised knowledge of the art market and a passion for printmaking, Halcyon Gallery have extensively researched and acquired particular and sought-after editions. Master Graphics – The Art of Printmaking offers a rare opportunity to view an integral piece of an artist’s oeuvre and explore collections of remarkable art.
