Social Studies

9 Nov 2024 – 9 Feb 2025

Artists have long recognised printmaking as a democratic, inexpensive, and graphically striking way to communicate social and political messages, often referencing or incorporating historical printed matter for effect. This exhibition presents the work of Brook Andrew, Emily Floyd and David McDiarmid, who employ printmaking as part of their multi-disciplinary practices to explore a range of contemporary issues.
