Description
This rare French art exhibition poster on archival paper dated 1960 is by internationally renowned Wisconsin printmaker and sculptor Dean Meeker (1920-2002). It measures 29" tall X 19" across. The show was in Paris and titled La Gravure (the Engraving) and featured prints he made during his Guggenheim fellowship in Europe. It included engravings of Venice, France, and Italy. Meeker started as a sculptor but quickly became influential and innovative printmaker. He was the first printmaker to overprint silkscreens with polymer intaglio, giving his works a 3 Dimensional quality. He was the co-inventor of the Meeker-McFee motorized etching press. He taught Silkscreening at University of Wisconsin Madison for 46 years. He was a 1959 recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship. His Sculptures, paintings and prints are in over 100 important world collections to include New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery in Washington DC, the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, the Victoria and Albert Museum.
