Library exhibit features wood block and Styrofoam prints
Wednesday, January 12, 2022 - Sunday, February 20, 2022Location: Archabbey Library Gallery
An exhibit of wood block and Styrofoam prints called “A Sense of Place” will be on display from January 12 through February 20, 2022, in the Saint Meinrad Archabbey Library Gallery, St. Meinrad, IN.
The gallery will exhibit works by Kentucky artist Chris Plummer. This exhibit showcases both a series of landscapes inspired by the land near Plummer’s home in Niagara, Kentucky, and a series of black and white prints centered around the idea of house and home.
The ideas of community, the environment, family, neighborhoods, and houses have always been central to Plummer’s art.
Plummer has been enamored with print making since he made his first print in 1995, carving a block of birch plywood and rolling ink on its surface. In 1999, he earned a BFA at Northern Kentucky University. Since then, he has participated in local and regional art fairs, winning many awards. In 2021, he won best in show in the Around the Loop Art Fair in Memphis, Tennessee. In 2019, he won best in show at the Q-Fest Art Fair in Quincy, Illinois, and the Around the Fountain Art Fair in Lafayette, Indiana.
