In the Gallery: David Wolske

On Display: September 5 through October 28
Gallery Reception: Saturday, October 24th 4-6

David’s work explores the potential of letterpress printing as a medium for creative, non-commercial printmaking. The prints—and the collages, which derive from proofs and makereadies—in this exhibition utilize only the letters W-O-R-D. He developed a masking technique, isotype printing, and uses that process to take the letters apart and reassembled the particles into a visceral lexicon. Join us Saturday, October 24th from 4-6 pm for a gallery reception at the museum.

On the Blog: University of Kansas Workshop

If you have ever wondered what happens in a workshop at the museum take a sneak peek at our latest blog post. For the last five years, instructors Linda Samson Talleur and Andrea Herstowski have brought students from Lawrence, Kansas to our museum for a week long workshop. This year they created an abecedary about Two Rivers in their workshop.

Keep up with the happenings at Hamilton, get notified of upcoming events, and hear about exclusive shop additions.
