This spring, take a closer look at prints by leading contemporary artists and innovators in printmaking when the BMA brings approximately 20 vendors from around the U.S. for the Baltimore Contemporary Print Fair on Saturday, April 1 from 10 a.m.–8 p.m. and Sunday, April 2 from 10 a.m.–5 p.m.
This highly anticipated event provides new and established collectors the opportunity to peruse and purchase limited editions, single prints, portfolios, photographs, and drawings by established and emerging artists. Visitors are encouraged to take advantage of the museum’s intimate and informal setting to talk with artists, curators, and printers to learn more about contemporary art and printmaking techniques.
The Print Fair weekend also includes renowned artist James Siena in conversation with BMA Associate Curator of Prints, Drawings & Photographs Ann Shafer, the announcement of the Artist & Editions Award recipient, and performance artist Brian Andrew Whiteley’s Trump tombstone project, The Legacy Stone, which will be accompanied by grave rubbings by master printer James Stroud of Center Street Studio. Tickets are $10 per person for one day or $15 per person for both days, and FREE for BMA Members. Students and teachers are free with valid ID at the door. Tickets are available online and at the BMA Box Office. For more information, contact the BMA’s Prints, Drawings & Photographs department by calling 443-573-1789 or visit artbma.org
