Various

09/01/2026 to 08/01/2028
Submissions due: 08/01/2028
Seeking additional venues--especially on the west coast--for the exhibition, "Press and Pull: Two Decades at the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop," funded by the Terra Foundation for the Arts and supported by Teiger Foundation and organized by Essye Klempner and Jazmine Catasús from the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop (RBPMW), a program of the Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts.

In 1947, at a time of deep racial segregation, Blackburn founded The Printmaking Workshop in New York City—one of the first interracial, community-based print studios in the United States. Drawing on his formative experiences in Works Progress Administration (WPA) art centers and Harlem's independent artist-run studios, Blackburn created a space devoted to artistic exchange, experimentation, and mutual support.

Artworks include highlights from the Print Archives, a collection of prints including Romare Bearden, Charles White, Robert Blackburn, Faith Ringgold, Camille Billiops and Betty Blayton - contemporary artists include Chakaia Booker, Nontsikelelo Mutiti, Kameelah Janan Rasheed, Dindga McCannon, Baseera Khan and Elliott Jamal Robbins. We also have an interactive educational online platform of the recently completed _The Only Thing That Lasts: An Oral History of Robert Blackburn’s Printmaking Workshop_ funded by Hauser & Wirth Institute and supported by the Dedalus Foundation to be acquired by the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution.

The exhibition premiered at the James Gallery CUNY Graduate Center Sept 9 - Nov 15, 2025; opened at MassArt Museum of Art Jan 29 - May 31 2026, and opens at the University of Illinois, Chicago - Gallery 400 this September.
