International Print Center New York presents 50/50: New Prints 2015/Winter, on view at 508 West 26th St, 5th Floor, from January 15 - March 14, 2015.  The exhibition consists of forty-two prints by thirty-five artists, selected from over 2,000 submissions. Opening IPCNY's 15th Anniversary year, 50/50: New Prints 2015/Winter is the fiftieth in this unique exhibition series. An illustrated brochure with a curatorial essay by Jane Kent accompanies the exhibition.

Ms. Kent writes: "50/50 refers both to the event of the fiftieth exhibition at IPCNY and to a reflection of a ratio of balance between a broad range of approaches and attitudes being practiced today in all the robustly divergent territories of contemporary printmaking."

This exhibition is dedicated to Thomas R. Slaughter (1955-2014), artist, printmaker and philanthropist whose generous support through the Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation has had long-term ramifications for the development and stability of IPCNY's programming.

This show was selected by: Joseph Goddu (Art Advisor and Dealer, American Art), Jodi Hauptman  (Senior Curator, Department of Drawings and Prints, The Museum of Modern Art), Jane Kent (Artist and Professor), Andrew Mockler (Master Printer, Jungle Press Editions), Carrie Pollack (Artist, Educator, Avenues The World School), and Marc Schwartz (Collector).

50|50: New Prints 2015/Winter represents a wide variety of printmaking techniques, such as relief, silkscreen, lithography, and intaglio. With all prints required to have been made within the past year, New Prints shows bring to the fore new trends, talents and techniques as they emerge in the field of contemporary printmaking.

In most cases, IPCNY's exhibitions are available for tour. Don't miss Somewheres & Nowheres: New Prints 2014, on view at Concourse Gallery, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN from March 1 - March 31, 2015 during Southern Graphics Council's "Spheres" Conference 2015.
