Dan Rizzie’s first and “sacred” word to describe printmaking is “collaboration.” Join us for our February Insight Sunday and the final day of our exhibition, Master Impressions,  where the formidable artist and East End printmaker discusses the beauty of the collaborative process between artist, the printer, and the press. Guests will be able to view some of Dan’s prints and artist books and gain an in-depth look at his practice.

Fascinated by the fact that something as simple as ink on linoleum could produce beautiful art and entranced by the endless possibilities that printmaking as a medium offers, Dan found himself drawn to the medium with ample curiosity and zeal. Reflecting on his 40 years of being an artist, he realizes that most of his work is prints. Join us for our final event for the exhibition that honors the beauty and legacy of the medium. A Q&A will follow the discussion.

Insight Sundays, held the last Sunday of each month, provide individual artists with the opportunity to talk in-depth about their processes, techniques, and concepts in the presence of their work. The program allows the audience to see through the artist’s eye. It is a monthly program open to the public and free to our members. Dan’s work is included in our Winter exhibition, Master Impressions: Artists and Printers on the South Fork (1965-2010), on view January 14 – February 25th during our exhibition hours, Wednesday through Sunday 12 PM – 5 PM.
