New Museum Los Gatos (NUMU) and the California Society of Printmakers is pleased to present Thinking Outside the Frame, a juried group printmaking exhibition featuring works that fall outside of the realm of traditional printmaking, including large-scale prints, installation and book arts.

NUMU visitors will have the opportunity to explore a range of content from the work of artists who include printmaking among their many modes of expression and those who use printmaking as their primary method of creative practice. Along with presenting works of art, NUMU will install a printmaking workshop in its Spotlight Gallery where visitors can learn about the various methods of printmaking, discover the tools of the trade that facilitate printmaking techniques, and participate in hands-on art activities.

Cathy Kimball, executive director and chief curator of San Jose ICA, serves as juror of Thinking Outside the Frame.  Kimball’s selections for the exhibition include works by: Beth Fein, Betty Friedman, Karen Gallagher-Iverson, Ewa Gavrielov, Ellie Honl, Kent Manske, Michelle Murillo, Carrie Ann Plank, Ashley Rodriguez Reed, Luz Marina Ruiz, Robynn Smith, Ginger Tolonen, Katherine Venturelli and Donna Westerman. 

NUMU will also be presenting a variety of exhibition related programs and workshops.  Check the NUMU website for details.
