In March, we will explore the exhibition New Ground: Jacob Samuel and Contemporary Etching with curator Esther Adler. Master printer and publisher Jacob Samuel has brought etchings—prints created by transferring ink from a metal plate to paper—into the 21st century through collaborations with more than 60 contemporary artists. Together we will learn about the flexibility of etching and its reinvention for a contemporary world through Samuel’s printmaking tools and processes.

Image description: A black line etching on off-white paper. A large leafy plant fills the bottom right of the work, partially covering a coffee table holding magazines and a water pitcher. A textured couch sits behind the coffee table. To its left is a fireplace with a mantel holding two long ferns. Further left is a tall lamp, rounded wicker chair, and round table covered by a leafy patterned floor length tablecloth. The scene is tied together with the tight diagonal lines of the floor.
