 Colorprint USA 2006
  Curated by Lynwood Kreneck

  [October 6 - November 19, 2006]

Installation Views

Lynwood Kreneck organized the first Colorprint USA exhibition in 1969 because he recognized the need to bring contemporary original fine art prints to Lubbock to benefit students, faculty and the Lubbock community.  Colorprint USA 2006 marks the 18th Colorprint exhibition that he has directed or curated.

For this 2006 edition of Colorprint, Kreneck began extensive travel in the Fall of 2005 seeking some of the finest and most interesting contemporary prints available.  The Colorprint 2006 show features work from some of America’s most established printmakers, as well as a selection of young and emerging artists, some of whom are recent recipients of the MFA degree.  Among the latter are Kevin Shook, teaching in Birmingham, Alabama and 3-D printmaker Michael Litzau in Columbus, Ohio.

Kreneck has a legacy of over thirty-five years of former printmaking students, most of whom have gone into the professional field and still actively make prints.  This was recently acknowledged by the Southern Graphics Council, a national printmaking organization, which honored him with the 2006 lifetime achievement for Excellence in Teaching Printmaking Award.  Among TTU alumni included in Colorprint 2006 are recent graduates, Brandon Gardner, Assistant Professor of Art at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and Jon Goebel, Instructor at Monmouth University, West Long Branch, New Jersey.  Other alumni in the exhibit are: Gary Brown, Assistant Professor, Laredo Community College; Ryan Burkhart, Instructor of Printmaking and Director, Flying Horse Editions, the Fine Arts Press of the University of Central Florida, Orlando; John Hancock, Associate Professor of Art, Mary Hardin Baylor, Belton, Texas; John Hitchcock, Associate Professor of Art, University of Wisconsin, Madison; Michelle Martin, Associate Professor of Art, University of Tulsa, Oklahoma; Kim Tester, Fine Arts Chair and Dean of Faculty, Canterbury School, New Milford, Connecticut; Katherine Liontas-Warren, Professor of Art at Cameron University, Lawton, Oklahoma and Tim High, Associate Professor of Art, The University of Texas,  Austin.

Landmark Arts in the School of Art is honored to be able to present this Colorprint USA exhibition once again.
