About the exhibition:

‘Crtl-P’ is the command to print (on Windows PC at least). It is the abbreviated sequence of simple actions that transform a digital image into a physical one. As common as it may be, this ordinary act of creation speaks to the volumus history of image-making, the dissemination of knowledge, and of course, printmaking. 

Crtl-P was juried by Liz Spungen of The Print Center to create a collection of work that celebrates excellence and innovation in the diverse fields of printmaking.
