The Print Center is proud to be a partner of Philagrafika 2010, an international festival that celebrates the role of print as a vital force in contemporary art. Set to be one of the largest arts events in the United States, Philagrafika 2010 will showcase the work of more than 300 artists and will unite 88 Philadelphia art institutions, including the five core venues: Philadelphia Museum of Art, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Moore College of Art & Design, Temple Gallery, Tyler School of Art, Temple University along with The Print Center. The Print Center will serve as the hub of Philagrafika 2010's activities. The Print Center will host a diverse roster of artists and collectives. The Philadelphia artists' collective Space 1026 has turned the main gallery into a lounge/reading room/meeting space. Centered on the idea of creating community through production, the exhibition addresses how artists have used printmaking to access a broad audience and disseminate their work widely. The Print Center will include an interactive printed system by Mexican artist Erick Beltrán; as well as editions, publications, videos and programs by Eric Avery (US), Bitterkomix (South Africa), Sue Coe (UK), Julius Deutschbauer (Austria), Dexter Sinister (US), Dispatch (US), Drive By Press (US), Eloísa Cartonera (Argentina), Art Hazelwood (US), Jenny Schmid (US), Self Help Graphics & Art (US) and Temporary Services (US).
