STATE OF THE ARTS: Art En Vivo

Art En Vivo is a live screen-printing project where artists and designers are invited to turn a piece of their original art into an edition of hand-printed posters.

The inaugural series of Art En Vivo featured 52 artists from El Paso, Juarez, and Las Cruces over the course of 48 live-printing events.   There were no curatorial guidelines other than the geographic location of the Artists; as a result, the series is very diverse in terms of each Artist’s primary medium, age, skill level, and subject matter.

On June 29, 2017 Proper Printshop will be gifting a complete box set of all 52 prints done in 2016 to the El Paso Museum of Art. Here to talk print making and Art en Vivo is JJ Childress of Proper Printshop. 

Originally Broadcast on June 24, 2017
