Luis Camnitzer: Forewords and Last Words

Over the last five decades, pioneering conceptual artist Luis Camnitzer has earned an international reputation for his subtly biting prints, multiples and sculptural works that combine poetic lyricism with political and social engagement. This spring, Camnitzer will receive the Printmaker Emeritus Award during the 2011 annual conference of the Southern Graphics Council International, hosted March 16 to 19 by Washington University’s Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts. In recognition, the university’s Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum has organized Luis Camnitzer: Forewords and Last Words, an exhibition of works spanning the career of this influential artist.
