Harold Garde developed and named the Strappo printmaking technique, which involves painting on glass then transferring the dried acrylic paint layers onto paper or canvas. ("The Shape of the Silk Kimono" (1994), Harold Garde, Strappo on paper, 29" x 36".)

"Fine Print" includes artwork created through traditional printmaking techniques, such as woodcut and lithograph, but also incorporates collage, photography, and other processes falling somewhere between printmaking and painting. Regardless of genre, no fine print reading is necessary to appreciate the impeccable craftsmanship and aesthetic appeal of this survey of prints by our talented roster of artists. The show features: Grace DeGennaro, David Driskell, Harold Garde, Tom Hall, Séan Alonzo Harris, Alison Hildreth, Hector Nevarez Magaña, Daniel Minter, Ashley Page, Miklos Pogany, and Ellen Weitkamp.

"My sculptures are a conglomeration of contrasting elements that straddle the space between representation and abstraction. Dominant features of color, form, and material push against one another, allowing disparate materials to come together as hybridized forms.

Inspired by and referential to the natural world, my work blurs the line between nature and my own reimaginings of it. I craft these pieces using a wide variety of media — including clay, plaster, and wood — to explore the inherent properties and unexpected potential of combined materials. There is a palpable spontaneity inherent in these works." - Roberley Bell
