Monoprints and individual prints
An exciting exhibit of collages containing elements of etchings and monoprints created by Leo Ray. Ray integrates "torn" segments of etchings, mainly black, and surrounds them with a colorful, rich world which he creates. Each print is individual and distinctive, entirely different from the others.

Miniatures and other prints, Hanna Farah, Kufr Bir'im
Farah has chosen amplification in a small, almost tiny format. Using stylus and brush, he touches the plates, casting likenesses and a series of activities burned into the copper plates leaving marks. Farah rebuilds Kufr Bir'im, where his forefathers were born – although he himself never lived there – both as slivers of memories and dreams, and as an explicit and feasible proposal of return

Howard Hodgkin at the Gottesman Etching Center
Sir Howard Hodgkin, 76, one of the most eminent of British artists, chose the song "As Time Goes By" (1931) from the film Casablanca (1942) as the title of a monumental work – an etching measuring 244 X 610 cm. Possibly the largest etching ever printed anywhere, it was produced and distributed exclusively by the Alan Crestea Gallery in London in an edition of 7 prints. We are proud to exhibit one of the prints, and we invite the public to enjoy this exceptional work.
