DURHAM PRESS at the PCNY SPRING BENEFIT | May 19th

 

 

We’re excited to announce that Durham Press has been chosen as one of this year’s honorees at Print Center New York’s 25th Anniversary Spring Benefit on Monday, May 19, at Tribeca Rooftop in NYC. We are delighted to share this recognition with Beatriz Milhazes and Met Curator Nadine M. Orenstein. Join us as we celebrate and support this incredible organization by purchasing a ticket or the Benefit Print we have created with Beatriz Milhazes, titled In the Mood for Hope. All proceeds go directly to PCNY, which has long championed printmaking as a vital artform by helping printmakers such as our artists and ourselves thrive. Should you have questions or need assistance, please contact printcenternewyork@bowenandco.com or 914-231-6180.

 

We have had the pleasure of collaborating with Beatriz since 1996, and together we’ve created In the Mood for Hope (below), a special Benefit Print to mark this occasion. Measuring at 16 ¼ x 11 ¾ inches (41.28 x 29.8 cm), this woodblock and screenprint edition of 50 overflows with complexity and vibrancy even in its smaller scale. In times dominated by adversity, we are all certainly in the mood for a little hope, but hope itself does not have to be large to be powerful – real strength comes from being able to find that brightness even within these small windows of beauty. And In the Mood for Hope sings with such beauty in its dancing composition of saturated inks. Intricately patterned bands in muted tones hold their own delicacy, a thoughtful pause which contrasts the show of force of Milhazes’ vivid colors.
