"Beyond Printmaking is an art competition and
exhibition organized by the Landmark Arts and the printmaking area in
the Texas Tech University School of Art.
As technology is changing ever more rapidly, many contemporary
artists who originally started with printmaking as their primary medium
are using interdisciplinary approaches to embrace the needs of time.
Contemporary artists find ways to create visually captivating and
socially or politically engaging discourses through interdisciplinary
approaches.
As much as printmaking has been loved for its traditional
resonance, its versatility applied in multimedia does not see
limitations. In this third exhibition, we are looking for artists who
have a vision of printmaking beyond the traditional practices, who push
the technological and conceptual limits of what is considered
printmaking."
