Glass Curtain Gallery

Chicago
Reception: Thursday, November 6, 5-8 pm
Panel Discussion featuring Paint For Print artist John Hendrix:
Friday, November 7, 11am- 12:30pm
Paint for Print is an exhibition of some of today’s leading professional illustrators who work in painting mediums. In our digitized culture with its proliferation of vector images and photo illustrations, the work in Paint for Print is a reflection of the emotive quality present in hand-painted artwork.
The featured artists are at the forefront of the recent resurgence in the popularity of illustration in visual communications. Their work has appeared in every major design and illustration review including Communication Arts, HOW, The Society of Illustrators, and the book series Illustration Now.
Paint For Print features original illustrations by: Ofra Amit, Shino Arihara, Gérard DuBois, Penelope Dullaghan, John Hendrix, Sterling Hundley, Aaron Jasinski, Robert MacKenzie, Joe Morse and Gina Triplett.
The exhibit also features a simultaneous exhibition, P4P: The Workshop, an adjacent show of illustration work created by Columbia College students in a workshop with Paint for Print artist Penelope Dullaghan (founder of Illustration Friday).
