United in Isolation: An Online Exhibition. Letterpress Printers Respond to a Pandemic

May 17, 2020

Join your fellow letterpress printers from around the world in a virtual exhibition showcasing letterpress printers’ responses to the Covid 19 pandemic.

The exhibit is being organized by Peter Duffin and Samuel Larson from Animales de Lorca press in coordination with the United in Isolation team.

To be included in the exhibit, simply send Peter Duffin at PedroDuffin@gmail.com a good quality photo of the work you created in response to the pandemic (this could be a public service announcement ´Wash Your Hands!´ or a more poetic response to the sense of isolation created to this unique time in our history—all manner of responses are welcome). Some brief description will also be required.

The deadline for submissions is June 14, 2020 with online exhibit taking place in the summer of 2020. Peter and Samuel are hoping to organize a physical exhibit of this work too, this will be somewhat dependent government stay-in-place orders and the progress of the pandemic.
