If you are in NYC, an exhibit not to miss is Chuck Close Prints: Process and Collaboration at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The exhibit shows over a hundred works, many of them demonstrating the progressive stages of various print processes including lithographs, wood cuts, and silk screens. The exhibit closes April 18th.

Pictured above is my favorite of the exhibition, a 113-color Japanese-style ukiyo-e woodcut. Many thanks to Barbara Linhart for the recommendation!
