The Wood Engravers’ Network is thrilled to announce its 5th juried exhibition of relief engraving; expanding interest in and promoting the traditional and contemporary manifestations of the medium.
We are seeking prints to be included in a Relief Engraving exhibition. Relief engraving can include engraving on any material ( wood, plastic, Corian®, Resingrave®) as long as it is printed in relief and engraved with burins/ gravers (these are different than woodcut tools). Relief processes not “in the spirit” of wood engraving are not eligible. Please feel free to reach out and inquire if you have any questions.
The exhibition will tour from June 2024 to December 2026.
