Description
Sunday, November 08, 2009; 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Cedar Rapids Museum of Art

The CRMA is fortunate to be able to dedicate four galleries to the work of consummate printmaker, Mauricio Lasansky. Making prints for more than 65 years-first in his native Argentina, then in New York City, and for more than 55 years in Iowa City, Iowa-Lasansky's generous gift of prints in the 1980s and 1990s has made it possible for the Museum to present a wide range of the artist's works, changing all four galleries every six months. Best known for large-scale prints in which he uses multiple plates and full ranges of color, Lasansky combines a spectrum of graphic techniques including etching, drypoint, aquatint, and engraving. Throughout his stylistic evolution, he has created eloquent figural statements that are colorful, fresh, and spontaneous.
