The Walker Art Center and Highpoint Editions are pleased to announce the co-publication of a new limited edition by Jim Hodges, to be completed in the fall of 2016. Entitled of Summer , the work follows the 2015 release of Hodges’ print Winter Speaks, and is the second of a highly anticipated four-print series based on the seasons that Hodges is creating with Highpoint Editions over the next few years. Pushing technical boundaries, Hodges’ newest edition incorporates many printmaking traditions, including chine collé, woodblock, intaglio, screenprinting, and digital techniques. The work is printed on layers of delicate, translucent paper, which simultaneously veil and expose Hodges’ intricately balanced gestures and colors beneath. Evoking both the impression of surrounding nature and a sense of flowing abstraction, the work recalls the reflective surface of water, with its layers adding subtle depth and a suggestion of something shadowy below.
All available impressions of of Summer are currently sold out. Please email jess@highpointprintmaking.org if you have any questions.
