Dublin Artist Book Fair

Screen printer Ciara Phillips is nominated for Turner Prize

Ciara Phillips has been nominated for her solo exhibition at The Showroom, London. Phillips works with all kinds of prints: from screenprints and textiles to photos and wall paintings. She often works collaboratively, transforming the gallery into a workshop and involving other artists, designers and local community groups. Phillips has taken inspiration from Corita Kent (1918–1986), a pioneering artist, educator and activist who reinterpreted the advertising slogans and imagery of 1960s consumer culture. For the exhibition that won her the nomination she turned London’s The Showroom gallery into a print workshop, inviting designers, artists and local women’s groups to come and make prints with her. Born in Canada in 1976, she now lives in Glasgow. Phillips is a brilliant print maker who imbues the medium with a freshness that is remarkable, in posters, prints and textiles.

Journal des Dames et des Modes,

Opening Date: 11 October 2013 Closing Date: 30 March 2014 Location: Chester Beatty Library A hundred years after the publication of the fashion magazine (1912-1914), over one hundred of the Journal’s exquisite illustrations known as Costumes Parisiens will be displayed at the Chester Beatty Library. The exhibition presents a vivid snapshot of culture and fashion in early 20th-century France, a glamorous period in fashion history and design. Seventy nine issues of the Journal were published between 1912 and 1914. The Journal appealed to connoisseurs and aesthetes, reflecting the intellectual and artistic culture of the Parisian elite during the close of the Belle Époque. The most distinctive feature of the magazine was its illustrations of contemporary high fashion. Produced through a combination of copperplate engraving and stencil technique (pochoir), the strong lines and vivid colors brought the high fashion of the time to life. This exhibition displays over one hundred of these fashion illustrations alongside contemporary costume on loan from the Ulster Museum. This online exhibition provides a brief introduction to the three main themes of the exhibition: fashion and clothing of the period, fashion illustrations and printing techniques and the artists and designers represented.

Screenprinting Nun at DHG

Corita 30 May - 30 July 2014 During the 1960s, a time of great social change and unrest in America, Sister Mary Corita Kent (1918-1986) taught challenging art classes that emphasised the importance of love, creativity and community. She also made hundreds of screen prints to communicate her message as widely as possible. The posters combined simple imagery and text in bold colours, often taken directly from existing graphics, as a way to 'invigorate and inspire all people who have to live with the onslaught of advertising'. Her prints included quotes from diverse sources, including Ralph Waldo Emerson, Albert Camus, ee cummings, The Beatles, and The Bible. After 32 years in a Hollywood convent, Corita left the order and devoted the rest of her life to making art; she held numerous exhibitions, gave lectures and created public artworks in schools, colleges, and elsewhere in America. She is now cited as an influence and inspiration by many contemporary artists, including Andrea Buttner, who exhibited in Gallery 1 earlier this year. The exhibition will include many examples of Corita's prints and posters that will be distributed in a free raffle at the end of the exhibition. Please enquire in the Gallery for details.

Leeds Print Festival 2014

www.leedsprintfestival.com Leeds Print Festival is back for its third year, celebrating contemporary and traditional printmaking processes, for a week of events at venues across the city later this month, including opening night celebrations, a print fair, exhibitions and a series of talks. The opening night, on Friday 24 January, will be held at Leeds Gallery, also home to this year's main exhibition. There will be a chance to get inked up and create your own prints, with Bradford-based The Print Project and Nomad Press. There will also be a showcase of work, Colours May Vary, exhibited at Café 164. The full line-up for this year's Print Talks is yet to be announced, but so far speakers include illustrator Mr Bingo and CR editor Patrick Burgoyne. Your paper ticket for the talks can also be exchanged on the day at the venue, Leeds College of Music, for a beautifully letterpress-printed ticket. A variety of exhibitors will be at the Print Fair, including Dust, Papercut Bindery, Print For Good, The Print Project, Nomad Press, Caroline Pratt, Leeds College of Art Graphic Design course, Futile Vignette, Caroline Rerrie, Esther Mcmanus and Ditto. For 2014, organiser Amber Smith wanted to do more to support and encourage the involvement of creative indusdries at a local level. "This year we have adopted a more in-house approach by attempting to keep all the design and production within Yorkshire," says Smith. "Leeds has changed a lot in recent years with so many independent studios, events and spaces opening that we have benefited greatly from being part of that community."
