Southwest Impressions: A Broader Perspective

The unique beauty of the American Southwest has inspired generations of artists including printmakers. Thanks to Barbara J. Thompson's generous gift of fine art prints on display in Southwest Impressions exhibition, the Petrie Institute of Western American Art is able to tell these multi-faceted stories of inspiration, exchange, and artistic excellence. In conjunction, this symposium will consider an array of American printmakers  stories and techniques from the late 1800s into the mid-1900s as they sought to capture and express their impressions of the region.
