Exhibitions – Page 2 – Turn-Based Press

Turn-Based Press Co-Director Thom Wheeler Castillo lead several tours during DWNTWN Art Days. Tour number four was titled Walking Tour no.4: An Object, A Craft, and Ideas (PRINT), and included both a watercolor monotype participatory demonstration as well as a jaunt to visit the New World School of the Arts Faculty Show exhibition.

I presented the monotype demonstration and spoke at the NWSA faculty show about my stone lithograph which uses watercolor monotype as a second run, as well as about work by Carol Todaro. We both also currently have pieces on view in Impressions: a Selection of Academic Printmaking and Artists’ Books in the Turn-Based Press exhibition area.

The first night of DWNTWN Art Days, for which Turn-Based Press opened the show Impressions: a Selection of Academic Printmaking and Artists’ Books from South Florida, had a great turn-out! Below are a few images from the evening. The show will have another reception on October 4 as part of the Downtown First Friday art walk.

Participating artists are: Edgaryn Abreu, Katie Lynn Acosta, Elina Diaz, Marco Di Giovanni, Danny Euceda, Cynthia Fleischmann, Lorna Ruth Galloway, Jose Garcia, Griselle Gaudnils, Javier Guarezma, Victor Giraldo, Saba Ghani Zahedi, George Herrera, Kathleen Hudspeth
Michelle Izquierdo, Milydis Llanos, Eddie Lopez, Cynthia Milans, Larry Newberry, Lizzie Newberry, Sarah Newberry, Brian Perez, Beatriz Rodriguez, Susan Sargsian, Lani Marie Shapton, Carol Todaro, and George Wayne.

Turn-Based Press opened a show of works-on-paper and book arts in our exhibition space on May 3rd, 2013. The show is on view through June 15, 2013 and include works by: Warren Craghead, Denise Delgado, Antonio Fernandez, Adler Guerrier, Sabetty Patterson, Rob Stephens, Kari Snyder, Jonathan Thomas, Carol Todaro and Peter Borrebach, and Javier Torres.

The show has some wonderful pieces, and I hope that everyone enjoys it as much as I do.

Books, sequencing, pagination, text and the absence thereof are a theme which runs throughout the works.

A missing gap in a collograph printed on two large sheets of paper can echo the smaller rectangles and pages of its neighbor.

Rhythmic rectangles within rectangles–inkjet prints, screenprints, photos, books, pockets, and pages.

Friday, June 7th, 2013, is the final First Friday Downtown Artwalk of the Spring season, and Turn-Based Press will be open from 6 – 10 PM. 100 NE 11th ST, Downtown Miami, FL.

A video from the May 3rd opening, featuring the folding of some do-it-yourself books can be found here.
