Art of printmaking on show in new West Kirby exhibition

The art of contemporary printmaking is set to be explored in an exhibition being staged at a gallery in Wirral.

PrintWorks will be on show at The LAKE Gallery in West Kirby from February 9 to March 25, featuring a range of print methods including linocut, etching, collagraph and monotype in works from eight artists.

The six-week run also includes an artists’ talk with print demonstrations on Saturday, February 25. Places are free but should be booked in advance.

The Grange Road venue is a new artist-led space, opened last September, which hosts a changing programme of exhibitions of fine arts and contemporary crafts by established and emerging artists.

It’s the vision of glass artist Helen Smith, printmaker and painter Clare Flinn and mixed media artist Marianthi Lainas.

PrintWorks is at The LAKE Gallery in West Kirby from February 9 to March 25. The gallery is open from 10am-4pm, Thursday to Saturday. More HERE
